Pros
While going through the recruitment process, I was concerned by a few of the postings I read on Glassdoor, specifically about the CEO, and how he engages with employees. I reached out to a good friend who works at Cloudflare, and they took the time to go through the negative reviews and share their perspective with me. That conversation helped alleviate some concerns, still, I feared that after joining things might take a turn for the worse. My concerns went away my first week during orientation. Upon hearing the CEO speak to our onboarding cohort it became evident he's a passionate, intelligent, caring, and thoughtful leader. Throughout the week it also became clear that Cloudflare is full of equally passionate, intelligent, caring, and thoughtful individuals. Every day I come into the office, excited for the work I'm doing, and for the people I have the privilege of doing it with. I have regular experiences (daily) which validate my decision to work here. Cloudflare is AMAZING and the people who work here are genuinely good human beings — intelligent, capable, and inspiring — and a delight to work with. I couldn't be happier!
Cons
Like many fast growing companies we have our growing pains. I don't know that I've got enough information to diagnose what the biggest challenges are. Still, in the conversations I've had it's clear that people are engaged, interested in understanding where we can improve, and will to expend the energy to make things even better (and they're already pretty awesome).
