Pros

Inspiring mission, fun and intelligent colleagues, amazing perks & benefits, safe space to ask questions and learn. There’s always something to do so you’ll never be bored!

Cons

If you’re in Europe, it may be difficult to overlap with your US colleagues. This means in some roles you may have to stay longer (but that means the start of your day can be flexible too). This will probably change as Figma EMEA grows. Extremely fast paced, sometimes it feels overwhelming to stay on top of the things. Lots of projects to be involved in may feel chaotic. If you’re not comfortable with change, it’ll be hard.

Pros

• The internal atmosphere and culture is so much fun. The company all hands meetings are unlike any I've seen, with huge buzz and positivity even in tougher times • Incredibly engaged and passionate user base – our users love us! • High level of autonomy • Very high calibre of skills internally • Regular updates from senior management on company progress • High level of ambition at every part of the company, we're all in this together • Ideas are welcomed and there is a high level of cross functional collaboration • Bi-annual hack weeks • Bi-annual user conference • Monthly "Covid recharge days"

Cons

• Stretch targets often mean working hours are long • There is always a desire for "more", often before the previous task was completed • The high levels of autonomy can mean that you need to be motivated to direct your own workflow • Timezones are hard! • Targets are continuously increased, meaning there's little time to pause and appreciate how well the business is doing
