Pros
The Company, people and culture are great. You really feel like you are part of a family. The NY office is very international with employees from all over, which becomes a very welcoming and diverse environment. The company used to be a Fintech startup and has grown quite fast, with over 1300 employees worldwide now. At this stage it kind of gives you the best out of the two worlds: Startup culture with growth opportunity, ability to have a real impact with meaningful projects, easy access to upper management, flexibility, full stock fridge, etc… and a more structured environment of a large established company, with IT, HR and Facilities support, for ex. as well as great Health Insurance, 401k, Gym/Health incentive, free Yoga classes, Friday team lunch, etc… It is clear that the company is investing on its employees, establishing Performance Review processes, managerial coaching and training, etc. But of course, just like every other company, your success and happiness will depend on people: you and your direct manager/ co-workers.
Cons
Regular challenges of a company that is growing fast. HQ is in NY but operational base and most ops decisions are still made from Israel, which can be challenging. But nothing you can’t manage. Product knowledge is often kept within its people, which becomes hard to learn or pass it over to new hires.
