• Quality of Founding Team - Very experienced, not making silly mistakes, have set up a good culture.

• Engineering talent - Founders and founding engineers are all great, experienced, and very good engineers. There's no shortage of people to get advice from and learn from. A lot of the rest of the engineering team is quite young, but super smart, hardworking, and humble.

• Real - Clearly hit product-market fit and at a scaling stage. Risks are obviously still there, but risks are more around execution and the size the company will be, not a risk of it not being a company in 12 months.

• Growing - Lots of opportunity for personal growth: leadership, different roles, lots of learning, new technology, etc.

• Supportive Environment - The leadership is very explicit (and takes action on this) about supporting everyone in their career goals. Want to sit on a sales call? Want to try out product management? If you put your hand up and ask for an opportunity, you'll get it.

Product Leadership - I think the product management and leadership is still being worked out. However, the company is aware of this and explicitly hiring to fill key positions.

Office - Space is cramped right now, but we are moving, so it should be resolved.
