Pros

Smart teams, great mission, great products. I genuinely like and admire my colleagues. They are interesting, kind, funny people who also happen to be highly technical. Project Galileo, Universal SSL, Free plans for anyone all make me proud to work here.

Cons

Cloudflare isn't for everyone. If you need a defined career path and are looking for robust management programs, you'll be disappointed. Lots to do, not a ton of scaffolding. Some people will love this and thrive. Others won't.

Pros

Exceptionally talented team. Every IC I worked with brought deep technical skills, genuine passion, and a collaborative, empathetic approach. Compensation and equity are strong.

Cons

Senior leadership lacks a clear vision, direction shifts constantly without concrete goals. Internal competition is actively encouraged by management, which creates a toxic dynamic. No 401k match. Raises and promotions are difficult to come by once you're in, and leadership feels largely out of touch with the realities on the ground.
