Pros
Incompetent hires and/ or lazy low IQ / oldies from goog/msft/amzn managers mean tons to take on and drive - truly unique how much you can learn due to incompetent coworkers They used to pay a ton to get people to relocate The SoCal weather
Cons
Where do we begin? Management - Evan is an immature average designer who got very lucky. This bred a culture of hiring more like him. Design which reports to him holds a lot of power. I've never seen engineering treated so poorly as it is here Work culture - some really lazy rest n vest type people hired. Old rejects from Google/AMZN/MSFT fill the ranks. Or people from no name startups. Politics - thats all thats done,all day everyday. turf wars. fighting for things that they couldnt execute on even if they won Competition - IG is killing snap. Nothing more to say Low quality staff - who would relocate to LA? either the best who are paid outrageously (and have already left cuz they are actually good) or the worst...who have stayed back
