Solid growth with sacrifices
Interesting and demanding projects. Everyone is smart and driven and is trying to make the product better. Have a decent day into what you’d like to work with. It is very dependent on which product and team you’re on since some can seem more boring or more demanding.
The salary, office setup, and benefits are not up to par to other unicorn startups.
There are no liquidity events so the stock is useless. There are sacrifices to safety that occur, but it’s getting better (there’s a Forbes article on this).
