Pros

Small and nimble, its easy to move fast and make huge impact. People are very supportive and open to collaboration because there is very little overlap in platform team initiatives. Open source and cutting edge are encouraged. Since there is only one app, its very easy to focus. Engineering leadership is very progressive and focuses on hiring the best people for the job, while keeping the hiring objective and focusing on diversity of talent.

Cons

If you are looking for a place where a larger momentum must move you, this might not be for you. This is a place where self starting leaders can thrive as leadership is very open to new ideas that actually solve outstanding issues.

Pros

This is a place where egos are kept in check, and we focus on goals and ideals. Everyone recognizes that they don't know everything, so they're constantly learning new things in their domain and elsewhere (eg. Engineering Managers are learning more about management and helping team mates achieve their goals). We're also working on really impactful things that matter! It's pretty exciting and makes me proud

Cons

None yet. I've heard some minor hiccups in other teams, but they're more like stories of how things were in the past. I hear things have improved and changed drastically since the early days of Tinder. Ok, maybe year-end-bonuses or something would be nice :D

Pros

-Awesome people that actually care about and have pride in their work. -Work/life balance and scale of a bigger company with the impact of a startup. -Fun, collaborative environment. -Great perks (basketball court, food, massages, great health benefits, etc...)

Cons

-As Tinder as grown from a startup to a mid sized tech company there have been growing pains and turnover in execs. All changes for the better but in the meantime there is inherent frustration of changes priorities and processes.
