Pros

Really great product market fit, solid engineering team, lots of investment in SF office, successful growth strategy

Cons

Several execs hired or promoted from Uber have had a negative impact on culture and attrition. Game of thrones at the top, more focused on politics than growth. Remote teams culture inconsistent yet stronger than HQ as a result.

Pros

Some interesting people from all different backgrounds present a good learning experience. Remote culture (could be pro or con for some).

Cons

There is a reason this company has poor reviews here. It is run like a family business with very little true leadership. In the last few years the C-suite has been a revolving door. Salaries are low vs other companies. Management is fickle with a lack of clear decision making. The company rewards people more for talking than actually getting things done. Over the last couple years, the company has begun losing its edge in hardware, and is facing challenges from city governments like London that represent a big risk for the business. Losing Paris and recent issues in Brussels continue to show there is significant risk with the business model. In the meantime, other competitors are quickly catching up with strong hardware and are also now profitable. This is a car rental company masquerading as a tech company.

Pros

In theory unlimited PTO…. does it still count if you’re too busy and understaffed / under supported to use it?

Cons

Thus far I have been highly disappointed, multiple leadership changes and “reorgs”. My current manager is unaware and lacks the ability to lead as they are too removed from the work.
