      Pros

      Etsy was a fun place to work. The culture of the marketplace is evident in the culture of the people who work there. The office in Brooklyn is amazing, and the satellite offices also have a charm of their own. The technical culture is well developed and there were usually a good number of senior engineers to learn from when I was there.

      Cons

      Like any public company, there can be some turmoil based around earnings reports and shifting goals / expectations.

      Pros

      Our mission to keep commerce human comes to life everyday with the work we do. I love supporting creative entrepreneurs and making a difference in their lives. It's been a bit of a wild ride at Etsy since last year, but I feel strongly that we're heading in the right direction and will be doing amazing things to continue to grow. The benefits, especially the incredibly important parental leave and medical coverage, are great for attracting and retaining talent. Within the office, it's also nice to have so many places to work. I can sit with my team in our pod or go work on a sofa or outside if it's nice.

      Cons

      Sometimes it feels like there's a lack of direction from the top down. Communication between teams isn't always strong and it doesn't seem like leadership realizes how disjointed things can be at the rungs below their reports. It's a very young company - what I mean by that is most people seem to be in their twenties and thirties. This is great for innovation, but at the same time I think there's a lack of maturity on the culture front.
