Pros

friendly coworkers beach view office popular product

Cons

I worked hard at Snap, 10am - 8pm everyday plus replying messages/emails after work hours, and my manager never complained about my performance. Suddenly got an email in the morning, asking me to package my personal stuff and leave the company. Management used to say we are a family during all hands. Turned out that's how they treat their family.
