      Pros

      Company has great established base of Small and Medium businesses through payment processing. These small businesses have many needs in order to run and scale their business and Square is in a great position to go build products that will add value to them. Lost of opportunities to build and grow new products with an established customer base. Fast moving, data driven organization.

      Cons

      Many products don't have traction yet, means you have to be scrappy and learn how to prioritize the right features based on merchant needs to prove traction and get resources.

      Great Culture, Interesting Work

      Pros

      -Really interesting work with complex hard problems to dig in and solve. -Respectful & engaged peers -Progressive culture which trends positively to respect work/life balance with policies like unlimited vacation and flexible arrival/departure times.

      Cons

      -You have to be ready to dig in and work, if you are someone that is used to coasting through your day, Square is not going to be a fit for you. -Businesses depend on Square 24x7 for processing their payments. Sometimes you are going to have to work late or cancel your personal plans to handle emergent issues. You need to be willing to make sacrifices when necessary.

      Pros

      Square has an incredibly strong leadership team, great internal mobility and even better perks. The people are talented, driven and focused. Great work-life balance

      Cons

      I do not have many cons after working here for 3 years. Compensation seems to be a bit below market, but improving. Company occassionally loses focus.
