Pros

Decent benefits and a sugar-coated story about values that use the F-word as shock value but does not live up to anything they make you memorize onboarding.

Cons

Leadership is all scared of each other. They all will toss you under the bus to make themselves look good when they themselves have no business in the role. It is the most toxic culture I have ever witnessed. The PIPs are real and they don't even really tell you that you are on one. I would run like hell from any recruiter calling me from TEAM. Just look at their stock. I wouldn't wish this place on anyone. If you value peace of mind this is not for you. I've never had such anxiety anywhere and its a relief to not feel that any longer.

Pros

Fully remote and great at async working Good work life balance as a pm (not for engineers) ICs you work with are generally nice and competent Decent pay Unlimited vacation and great parental leave Opportunity to try AI tools

Cons

PIP factory has created a culture of fear. Why would people work here with meta / amazon terrible culture but without meta / amazon level pay? A lot of processes/tool migration that slow down projects and create a lot of extra work for ICs. Most of these processes seem to be in place solely so a senior leader could get promoted. Designers are micromanaged by their senior leadership We used to have a great culture but are now just like most other big tech company but with less pay. Teams used to get together more frequently but now there’s only budget for maybe once a year Normal big company stuff: Politics caused by misaligned goals between orgs / crafts Occasional reorgs Have to create visibility for your work in order to succeed Lots of tech debt with some critical non-revenue generating teams makes work slow and difficult. But those teams don’t generate revenue so can never prioritize improving things. Normal fully remote stuff: If you work on a team that collaborates with teams in other time zones frequently, you may have a lot of meetings at odd hours. This is heavily team dependent. But in general people on the east coast struggle as we have lots of meetings with Australia.
