Pros

Good work-life balance, and the company generally does a good job at not hiring jerks.

Cons

A designer-driven company with an aversion to any kind of data-driven design - or even collecting data on user behavior. As an engineer, expect to be treated like a fungible cog, unless your manager really has your back and knows how to use political subterfuge to keep you safe.

Pros

You get to interact with different people, work from home during COVID was helpful

Cons

Downhill since IPO, made adjustments for guests and hosts but left front line support as cannon fodder for verbal attacks and emotional blackmail
