Pros

- A true self-service company ; this erases the challenges linked to the scale of the company. - Relations with the management remain sincerely human ! - Leadership Principles (LPs) are at the core of all the interactions within the organization. If they feel relevant to you, you won't be disappointed ;)

Cons

- Scale of environment can be overwhelming. - Organizations are difficult to navigate. - Width of required technical knowledge is demanding and constantly evolving (imposter syndrome is at your door...)

Pros

Ambitious projects if you're in the right team. Typically great team-mates. Don't believe the memes, the ppl are not back stabbing jerks but are overall genuinely nice. Not constrained by budgets when building cool things. Tools while sometimes clunky are powerful.

Cons

Schizophrenic lack of focus, entire teams get split, merged and upended multiple times a quarter. Some product managers are disconnected from reality. It didn't use to be the case, the PM-Ts were previously top notch. You're pushed to vibe code everything. Established products with loyal customers are getting neglected. Newer VP level leaders don't seem to know what they are doing. Veteran OG VP level leaders are either leaving in droves or seem stressed or checked out.
