Working at Square

Recommend

Pros

Amazing company culture, we treat each other like family. Square is committed to providing the training and guidance to grow as a professional. They take care of their employees, and everyone works towards the same goal, regardless of what team you're on. Working for Square isn't just rewarding, but fun too. I'm very glad I chose Square.

Cons

I really can't think of any - maybe that the STL office isn't as developed as SF...but the STL office is still very new. It will get there.

Great lifestyle; limited career growth

Pros

Square is great if you're lifestyle-oriented. You're not expected to work more than 40 hrs / week and most people are out of the office by 5:30 so it's a great place to work for people with kids. They also have an amazing kitchen that feeds you 3 meals a day, and they recently added 401K matching. - Company mission - Transparency - Lifestyle - Square kitchen

Cons

If you're ambitious, Square doesn't have a lot of career growth opportunities. It's something they're working on. Right now, Square is a company you stay at for a couple years and then have to leave if you want more money or increased responsibilities. - Career growth - Compensation - Innovation

Square Capital's Downfall

Pros

- Great benefit package. - Snacks.

Cons

Square Capital employees voices are unheard. Well-intentioned change makers, when they disagree with management, seem to forcibly resign. Hopefully things will turn around.
