Pros

Fast growing company , but no company value, bad culture

Cons

Leaders at Snowflake appears to prioritize politics over merit. Promotions often seem influenced by favoritism rather than performance, with individuals advancing quickly if they know how to appeal to senior executives. Unfortunately, this environment can foster backstabbing and unethical behavior, which some leaders seem to tolerate or even encourage
