Pros

competitive pay for tech roles,

Cons

relocation/cost of living pay adjustments are made through RSU and not through base pay. not all EA roles offer relocation benefits, and if they do, they only provide the minimum amount. Company ERGs and "Earths best employer" LP are a PR front. most managers dread needing to keep their DEI quota's filled, or ignore it completely. worst, too many managers will pigeon hole their "DEI hire" in their role or keep a revolving door on their designated DEI role instead of investing on those individual's growth. If you have a manager who's a true DEI champion, you're lucky. 2023/2025-26 layoff culture has turned the whole vibe into survival/impending doom. whole teams just disappear, and you're left not knowing who's actually left.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
