Joined as an intern. Became a full-timer in six months. Great skill development/learning opportunities. The compensation is great and you get good hikes if you perform well. There are other benefits like insurance and all. Career growth opportunities are abundant. The company culture is amazing - flat hierarchy, very empathetic and understanding colleagues and managers, the CEO is very friendly.
