Pros: The base salary for a Software Engineer in the Seattle tech industry is pretty good. It's competitive. Also, their health insurance options are solid, definitely better than some other startups around here.
Cons: Honestly, the 401k match is pretty low, which is a bummer. And the stock options? They're just not that compelling compared to what you'd see at a bigger tech company. Don't expect fancy perks beyond the standard.
Advice to Management: You really need to boost the 401k match and rethink the stock option packages to attract top talent. It makes a huge difference for employees.

Pros: I've learned a lot working on cool projects here, especially in the AI/ML space, which is great for a tech startup. The team in the Austin office is really smart.
Cons: Honestly, the company culture can feel cliquey, and there's not enough transparency from senior leadership. This makes it tough as a Software Engineer trying to navigate internal processes.
