Pros

Good pay and remote first

Cons

Where to begin? The culture used to be great: collaborative, fun, interesting work. In the last 2-3 years it changed drastically. Good people started leaving and the leftovers started bringing in their friends. These external hires were favored over internal promotions. Insecure new managers who know they would never make it as an IC, manage long-tenured experts. Twice a year performance reviews pit colleagues against each other, by design. The product itself is now suffering as well; great engineers have left and took their knowledge to better companies.

Pros

- Great talented co-workers - Employees truely live the values

Cons

- Culture has taken a hit with performance reviews and layoffs - Work life has definitely changed over the years. High performance is required. - Constant org structure changes every 3-6 months make it hard for people to have a sense of adding value and goals or get promoted.
