      Great place to work

      Pros

      Super smart people working on unique problems. Cooperative culture with humble people results in a bare minimum of politics. Lots of opportunities for growth within teams, but also lots of examples of cross-functional moves. It's a values-driven company that focuses on impact AND how they achieve it. Best place I've worked.

      Cons

      Things can change quickly as we grow and that can be disconcerting to some people. There are a lot of kind people (that's the culture), but it can be hard to get people to give difficult feedback.

      Everyone who works at Pinterest truly cares about the product and loves the company, especially management. Pinterest invests in employees long-term success as well as cultural development.

      Cons

      Growing fast so there are inevitably some growing pains.

      Great product, smart engineers, but lots of politics in engineering

      Pros

      Most of engineers are smart and great. They are willing to work on exciting things without thinking about promotion. And product is fun to work on.

      Cons

      Too much politics in engineering part. A small amount of engineers (some managers as well) are not putting pinners first. Instead of contributing code, they are playing politics and delivering very negative culture here. Engineers who want to work on impactful things are very hard to get chance to if projects are against the interests of these people.
