Pros
  1. People - everyone is intelligent yet humble at the same time. Engineering, product, and data science teams have good sense of camaraderie
  2. Business - growing rapidly! Path to IPO is much more apparent than in most startups as executive team puts an emphasis on growing the business economically/sensibly over wasteful endeavors
  3. Mission - ultimately aiming to create a fairer system with respect to who can access credit and at what price.
Cons

I sometimes need to take a step back and ensure the foundations are in place to support it in, say, recruiting, managers, systems, and other areas.
