Business Outlook

Pros

Great engineering team, awesome product-market fit, tremendous customer value. Lots to learn and a place to experiment and bring new idea. Opportunities for career growth abound

Cons

Company is turning more and more political. executives are less strategic and more operational, and are simply trying to ensure that there part of the business is not seen in a negative light, instead of continuing to focus on what customers want

Business Outlook

Pros

- Emphasizes learning and growth, and supports engineers in making it happen. - Blameless culture, from incident postmortems and beyond - the focus is on learning and preventing future problems, rather than pinning blame. - Organizational willingness to take calculated risks with new technology, whether it's infrastructure tech, programming languages, or libraries. - Engineering strives to appropriately balance moving quickly against technical risk. - Smart engineers who get things done. - No jerks allowed - being candid yet empathetic is a core value here. - DevOps culture - you build it, you deploy it and run it in production.

Cons

- Some services, libraries and tools are legacy and balancing paying down this tech debt with new feature work can be a challenge. - Focus shifted from engineering excellence to product/feature work to (occasionally) too great an extent. This seems to be shifting back somewhat, so hopefully a happy, sustainable middle ground is settled upon.
