Pros

Experiences may vary depending on the team, and people you work with - but there's a pretty solid chance with most teams that members have a lot of autonomy and trust for things like: - Work hours / Day to day time utilization - PTO - Responsibility - Technical direction C-levels are _normal_ C-level types, but they do their best to be transparent and communicate. CEO, Doctorow holds AMA sessions monthly and has since the start of the pandemic - and while some tough political questions get non-answers, he does really seem to be as open as possible about anything people ask. Honorable mentions: Compensation is generally fair. Unlimited PTO is honored in a very healthy way, from folks I'm aware of. It certainly varies team to team, but the people are fantastic, and culture is that of openness and accountability.

Cons

It _really_ depends on the team, sometimes. Pay structure is very rigid - do not expect to have successful conversations about how you've grown your skillset and value to the company, with any sort of financial outcome. It's a big company - culture is very silo'd.

Pros

Great pay and opportunity for advancement if you can get on the right projects that will succeed. For the most part I have the tech I need to do my job and my coworkers are really smart capable people who I learn from every day. I feel challenged in my work and that makes me feel engaged and interested in the problems I solve daily. Flexible vacation time and great benefits.

Cons

It can be incredibly chaotic at times, bordering on toxic. People are on edge and passing blame around like a hot potato. Hierarchy, power plays, and territorial politics create land mines for the unsuspecting on any given project— depending on your team or organization you’ll need to tread lightly to survive. They only hire in Austin right now, so any open roles seem to take a long time to fill, but the work still piles on.
