The ability to work on personal growth instead of simply taking the easier (and cheaper) way out. Sponsoring tickets and stay for any conferences I want to attend (not only as a speaker, mind you). Want to work on some Deep Learning problems? Feel free to boot up a couple of AWS GPU instances for yourself. Want to tackle that new product using a tech stack that is new as opposed to what we currently used? Go ahead... Take the time to understand the pros and cons and then make the call. Yes, old technology gets the job done, but personal growth comes from experimenting with stuff. The ability to work how I want to. Though we aren't ROWE yet, we're pretty much there without trying to. Every meeting has a video link for remote participants, and while we do do SCRUMs, going for a week saying "I'm just trying something out to fix bug XYZ but haven't really gotten anywhere" is not looked down upon. I live with people who have to report to their manager when they have to take half a day off to visit the dentist. I'm glad I don't have to do any of that. Being made part of the vision. Massive dogfooding happens here. Everyone from the CEO to the newb contribute to vision. It's easy to say vision of a company is bullshit, but when you can see what you want to achieve, and know how you want to do it, it really makes going in to work more fun! + the usual casual leave policy, amazing coworkers (pros of a smaller team), great pay The ups and downs are there, but I'm in a kickass place that I'm not looking forward ti leaving anytime soon!
