Pros

Good WLB Interesting problems being solved day-to-day

Cons

Low pay Constant reorgs that make it impossible to plan work long-term Lack of clear company direction, constantly playing catchup with rivals like Toast in food & bev space Lack of synergy between Square and Cash Poorly planned migration projects that constantly distracts from real product work Disappointing career growth, especially in the last 2 years due to all of the above Lack of office culture lowers already low morale

High pay. Strong execution. Cross-border working is exhausting.

Pros

High pay. Lots of learning from other group companies facing similar issues. Great people. Strong leadership.

Cons

Cross-border working with US and AU slows things down, moves communication to a-sync, and moves meetings that can't be a-sync to less social / occasionally un-social hours.
