Pros: The company has a strong culture of shipping, and you can expect to have meaningful contributions to the product and customer experience from day one.
As a software developer, I'm given a lot of ownership over what I build, from technology choices to scaling. It's an exciting and supportive environment to work in, with lots of interesting challenges to solve.
Cons: Working at a high-growth startup can be a bit chaotic at times. You'll be expected to tackle new, interesting problems that may not be fully within your current area of expertise. For me personally, this is a great learning environment, but it may not be for everyone.
