      Pros

      I really believe in the trajectory of this company. It is very flat, but there is TONS of autonomy, very transparent, creativity is encouraged, very few rules, "try it and apologize later" kind of attitude. We work super hard, but it's fun.

      Cons

      Engineers are a bit clicky.

      Pros

      Local teams are really expected to have a lot of responsibility. Communication amongst team is really good even for remote teams. It's a great environment for hustlers and aspiring entrepreneurs. It's a fun product to work with. The list goes on and on...

      Cons

      If you aren't a self-starter, this isn't the company for you

      Pros

      Instacart is growing really fast and it's exciting to be able to grow with it. There's a lot to do and you can own things if you want to. The team is fantastic on both a professional and personal level. I can't say enough about that. It's great to work with awesome people. The engineering team owns a lot more of the product/project management than most companies I've worked at in the past. A lot more freedom to do what you think is right, but a lot more responsibility. Instacart is constantly pushing the boundaries on what we can do and how fast we can move. I feel like I've put out some of the best work of my life here because of the environment.

      Cons

      We're growing so fast staying up to date can be tough. You should be comfortable making decisions yourself and be up for anything. This isn't the place for an engineer who wants to get a fully spec'd out feature and then just build it.
