Pros

Discord has a clear set of values that are truly implemented throughout the company - these values enable each team to be owners, make great decisions, question the company direction, learn and help others grow all while being compassionate for one another. I'm really impressed

Cons

The company is still early/small and figuring out the future destination which means priorities and objectives may change - if they do it will be done transparently and with great reasons behind it.

Pros

+ We have an above average % of people who are incredibly mission driven, and not just here for the "perks" or the resume. It creates an awesome culture of wide-spread ownership and really creative thinking + small teams so lots of room to develop and own more scope + work on some of the most interesting problems related to engagement, communities online, and bringing people together around activities at scale. And of course comes with a number of fun, gnarly technical/operational problems to work on. + really really care about growing people from within and spend a lot of time training managers on how to support team members with excellence.

Cons

+ our culture of celebrates ownership but requires that people do a good job raising their hand to ask for help and self-managing if they need support. Fortunately, our managers and exec team have their head in the right place around supporting employees, growing people in line with their interests, and being responsive to pushback (it's what allows our culture of extreme ownership to thrive), but could be challenging for somebody still working on developing their own compass on what work can be done and what *should* be done. + Fast growing company, so comes with the natural growing pains of having to react quickly and change tack efficiently (team organization, strategy, etc.). This might even be a "pro" for some people, but it's not for everyone, so worth mentioning.

Pros

I have never felt that a company as cared for my well being as Discord. - No Work drama - High Transparency from the executives - Good benefits

Cons

While steps are being made on the diversity front, a lot of work still needs to be done.
