Pros

Overall company atmosphere. Company with ambitious goals. Great people, talented and with shared values. You have the tools and resources needed to make the best work you can

Cons

Fast pace, restructures and changes are common, but also understandable for a fast-growing company with global ambitions. You can see this as positive or negative depending on your profile. You have to be flexible, adaptable and look forward to work in such conditions comfortably, and you will love it, otherwise you might not. Also it's common that, due to its size, making stuff done can take longer than one would like (Many levels of decisions, documentation, compliance etc)

Pros

Xero has a great product and a lot of very passionate employees who work very hard for their customers.

Cons

The executive leadership at Xero is creating a toxic, backstabbing culture that promotes yes-men at the expense of honest dialogue. It's impossible to make decisions at the company, and multiple rounds of layoffs are leaving all employees shell shocked and fearful. Marketing teams are under-resourced while more demands are constantly being placed on teams to do more. When constraints are communicated, employees are blamed for them, rather that listened to. Multiple colleagues have said the same thing. Additionally, management has instituted a 'rank and yank' policy where everyone is graded on a forced curve, where the bottom quarter are immediately put on a PIP.
