Pros

Work remotely Good engineering support and setups to build

Cons

Too much communication. I know what I am talking about. It is rare that communication can be too much, but here it is. Part of the reason is working fully remotely, which is reasonable. But the other part is that there are too many opinions from product management. And the permissions from Engineering teams are limited to what’s planed, what’s committed and what’s the process of approvals allowed. A technology company lead by product/experience design means things are running on product/design taste and unverified hypothesis a lot. Eval driven is new to the company and it still far away from rooting in the culture.

Pros

Most remote friendly place there is to work. Encouraged to work anywhere. Coworkers are great as well.

Cons

Runs very lean so you have a lot of responsibility, but with that comes a big workload.

Pros

People are friendly, remote work and flexible schedule are appreciated

Cons

Company is very scattered and unorganized, there are no clear processes around why certain things get prioritized and who owns decisions. This leads to lots of thrash and generally poor work/life balance.
