Pros

The company has a positive reputation in the industry. Comprehensive employee benefits package. Collaborative and skilled IC coworkers.

Cons

The company culture doesn't fully align with some of its stated values, particularly in terms of open communication and transparency. Despite similar performance expectations, there's a noticeable disparity in resource allocation among different teams. This misalignment between available resources, management expectations, and ambitious deadlines has increased employee stress levels. The challenging work environment has resulted in various outcomes for employees, including burnout or extended leaves of absence.

Pros

There’s an actual (free) coffee shop in the office, the workspace is beautiful, and the pay is highly competitive. For the most part, you’re working with really smart colleagues, which is great. Plus, the tool itself is widely used and loved, and it actually makes your day-to-day job a lot easier when it's running smoothly.

Cons

The high turnover here is pretty exhausting, and it feels like people are constantly leaving. Communication from management is also really stressful—there’s almost no heads-up or clear feedback if someone needs to improve, so people and even managers just get blindsided by sudden PIPs or getting let go. Roadmaps change constantly, too. While the All Hands meetings are super inspiring, they usually just spiral into management shifting direction completely and forcing you into another crazy, unrealistic deadline. On top of all that, the tool itself runs pretty slow on the production side, which just adds to the daily frustration.
