Pros

Great discount Pretty great software engineers and engineering practices The teams work well together and it feels like you're able to produce a lot of good quality work with the exception of some toxic characters who seem to have plot armour when it comes to management It's awesome to work on a product/brand that is well loved and has a lot of demand

Cons

Lack of vision from the top Senior leadership feels out of touch and unable to produce basic functions like strategy or vision Annual Planning and compensation adjustments are extremely slow HR is extremely slow, they don't even provide timelines on initiatives they're working on

Thanks for sharing your experience! We take pride in hiring great Particles that build our excellent culture (and products). It sounds like you feel pride representing those products, too! Better communication is an area we're focusing on improving. Going through hypergrowth is difficult and comes with a variety of challenges. We've already implemented a few top-down ideas like increasing the amount of all-hands meetings and creating more opportunities to share our vision. But we're always looking to improve, and we'll use this feedback to help facilitate that growth. -Sean
