Pros

The best thing about this place is this place is the free food.

Cons

Recent changes at the company have been challenging, and many employees feel they have negatively impacted day-to-day work. Expectations have increased significantly, particularly with the new quota structure, which can feel unrealistic and difficult to sustain over time. There is a growing sense that leadership may not fully understand the impact these changes are having on teams. Additionally, with a potential merger on the horizon, there is a high level of uncertainty across the organization. Employees are unsure how roles, responsibilities, and job security may be affected in the near future. For prospective candidates, it may be worth waiting until after the merger is complete to get a clearer picture of the company’s direction, structure, and stability before making a decision.

Pros

The frontend engineering culture didn't exist before our team built it. Establishing modern stack practices (React, Vue, TypeScript) and bringing rigor to the frontend was genuinely rewarding work. Talented engineers and strong peer-level collaboration. Real technical ownership when projects actually moved forward. Decent benefits and remote flexibility until they started taking remote away.

Cons

Despite the company being profitable, there were layoffs nearly every quarter, which made it impossible to plan or feel stable. Leadership was consistently disorganized. Stakeholder alignment was a constant problem and decisions took far too long to land. A lot of projects never launched, not because of execution issues, but because leadership couldn't get the right people in the room or commit to a direction. Constant churn at the leadership and org level created whiplash on priorities.
