Pros

Great place to work and benefits can’t be beat. I was with the company for the past few years and enjoyed working with so many amazing people.

Cons

The recent layoffs were abrupt and unexpected. I believe that the company values of be simple and transparent should not only apply to customers, but to employees - more specifically, leadership.

Pros

Affirm has a lot of talented engineers and high impact, interesting products to work on. The company is remote first and I traveled abroad for a few weeks a year while working.

Cons

Most of the projects were under tight deadlines which put a lot of stress on the engineers. Management didn't really understand what was required of engineers for many of the projects which made it difficult for them to communicate the team's needs upward. My team was short staffed for senior and staff engineers so techincal leadership was also lacking.
