      Pros

      It is a great environment, fast-paced and I've learnt a lot

      It can be very competitive but in a good way as well.

      Mostly Great - Pay should reflect breadth of responsibility

      Team lead
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - stock options are plentiful, if currently not worth much they will grow in value - if in office food is included - unlimited PTO is nice - benefits are great - can move around internally - they love to promote internally - I can work from anywhere in the world remotely if I choose to (so long as I show up for my time zone)

      Cons

      - pay isn't great compared to other companies, I'm in leadership and still keep a second job to save enough to go on vacation. Due to the recent restructure, I also do the work of a regional manager and am paid and recognized as a lead. - sales led company means that most resources are funnelled there. Great if you're in sales but not so great if you're anywhere else.
