Pros

The offices are located right next to a train station, so it's pretty convenient to get there with public transportation. The company offers an ESPP (Employee Stock Purchase Plan), which is a nice financial benefit. Overall, the people are great, and the day-to-day work flows well. The building is new, with several floors, so there’s always space to step away if you need quiet away from the open space.

Cons

The hybrid work model is very strict — employees are required to be in the office three days a week, with no flexibility or exceptions. The design teams are quite fragmented and work in silos, which makes cross-team collaboration and sharing assets more complicated. There's often a lack of responsiveness from the HR team when issues arise. The development teams don't always encourage open conversations about bugs, and sometimes design-related decisions are made without consulting the designers. There’s a lot of hands-on involvement from upper management, including the CEOs, which can feel exhausting at times.

Pros

Relatively stabile company in terms of no layoffs, good product fit, generally great team members across the organization

Cons

Too many chefs in the kitchen on majority of the projects, too much involvement from c-suite on minor details, too many people in senior positions make very last minute demands and do not supply the support to make them happen in a timely fashion, last but not least c-suite is pretty much never satisfied. C-suite will frequently lash out on one person on a call with many stakeholders for a small mistake or a mistake that isn't their fault (even if it was a big mistake I don't condone this type of behavior). I don't know if I ever heard any positive feedback at all from C-suite to anyone that wasn't already quite senior.
