Pluspunten

I take just as much pride in the product we're building as I do the company that we're building. Employees are pushed to take advantage of the unlimited vacation, and there's a strong culture of maintaining a work/life balance. The autonomy at the company is very high. If you see a need that needs to be met you'll find a lot of support in pursuing your own project. Blame-free culture focused on finding solutions to problems. There's no internal politics/gossip. Ownership is very important in the company. Not just owning your projects/work, but literal ownership in the sense of equity. There's a high level of trust among the team. The engineering & product problem space is large, and leaves a lot of room for innovative ideas and solutions. People in leadership positions see their role as a support role, instead of a top down org structure. Salary, raises, and bonuses are built into the process. You don't have to ask/negotiate for a raise, and you can actually calculate ahead of time how your compensation will changed based on personal performance, company performance, etc.

Minpunten

If you're looking for an engineering position with super structured work this is not that. You have to be comfortable being somewhat autonomous and setting your own goals/deadlines. Tech stack is still growing/scaling. Great if you're interested in helping grow/build it, but if you're expecting a maturity level of a large company it's not there yet.

Pluspunten

Tailwind cares about its people as much as a business can. The leadership there has always been supportive, and ready to listen to calls for change.

Minpunten

Direction changes a lot, and you don't always know if you'll be working on the same thing for the next few months, even when you're told you are.

Pluspunten

Tailwind is a great company with great leadership and a strong vision for their product. There was a very collaborative spirit among the team, and everyone pushed each other to be the best version of themselves.

Minpunten

Working for a company that is relatively young always comes with challenges. The expectations are high, but I don't see that as a con; it's just a reality that you need to know about before you enter the VC-funded tech world.
