Amazing product team, supportive culture

Pros

People here really care. They're smart, they are curious, they want to make things better for customers, sellers, the people at the company, and, as cheesy as it is to say, the world. You have a lot of freedom to work on projects your group finds important.

Cons

We have a great work life balance here which a small number of people take advantage of. Sometimes I wish we had a bit more high level direction from the executive team.

Pros

Very open and friendly culture. Blamelessness is a core value. Lots of opportunity for shared learning. Actual commitments to sustainability, green energy, and community engagement. People will actually listen to you if you have ideas for new products. Phenomenal work/life balance. Basically, you feel good working at Etsy.

Cons

Upper management has vision, but communication seems to have gotten worse. Technical leadership is very hands off and doesn't provide enough guidance. Depending on your manager you may have to take your career into your own hands.
