Great place, not without its flaws
Very smart, dedicated and driven individuals. Culture is great and there is a really big focus on developing the people within the company (and promote them). As the company has continue to experience success, benefits and other perks have continued to get better as well.
Competing priorities can make it feel like chasing shiny objects sometimes (although it is getting better).
Some organizations within the company are constantly spread thin which means getting things is sometimes difficult or that things will need to be done without prior review by the appropriate people.
Be open to remote work, it is no longer the future, but the present and one way we can attract top talent.
Keep speaking to the vision for the company and the "why" behind what we do.
