Pros

I joined the marketing team at OkCupid during the summer of 2019 to focus on the brand's public relations efforts. The experience was exciting and rewarding, and it was a constant growth and learning period for my career. After a little over two years I left for a larger technology company, but quickly missed the impact and opportunities I had in my role at OkCupid. Less than one year after leaving, I re-joined OkCupid. This company feels like home, and I look forward to my new chapter with OkCupid. There also is a new People (human resources) team that is exceptional! They go above and beyond for all of us here at the company, and have created an environment that is collaborative, friendly and welcoming, with tons of in-person and virtual events to keep all of us engaged. I absolutely love coming to work every single day because of them.

Cons

None come to mind! And I'm a boomerang, so you know I mean it :)

Pros

Lots of smart and nice people. Employees believe in the product, and genuinely want to build stuff that helps people. Stable and profitable company, isn't going to disappear any time soon. Pay and benefits are great. Wide variety of snacks. There is such a thing as a free lunch, and a nice one at that. Friday breakfast is fantastic. Many people have lunch together at a communal table which is a good way to get to know each other. Free valet parking in the building.

Cons

Tech stack is custom and ancient, source code is a mess, mountains of technical debt. On the positive side they are aware of these issues. Because it's a small company with only one product, there's a limit on how much you can grow & change in your career. Lots of interaction over slack, even if the person is 10 feet away from you. Sometimes that's best, but overall I'm not a fan of that. Too many snacks = more time at the gym.
