People are interested in product you are developing. Awesome parties and good quality of perk.

So much Chinese in Palo Alto office. They are very exclusive and speaks Chinese all over the place. It even can affect your career development.

Pros

- love the ICs (designers, engineers, pms). it's very diverse and social and i love how lgbtq friendly it is. not typical for most tech companies. - has a nice office and the boost bar (free drinks) is nice - garage has lots of chargers - working within dating is interesting and the problems you talk about are very relatable, so it's one of the most real-world/social spaces to work in - projects can be really interesting and fun

Cons

- leadership has gotten so bad - there's always a constant fear of layoffs - it's very difficult to get a promotion - morale has been really low since layoffs in march and the new leadership and management hasn't done anything to alleviate it - we've lost a lot of our team events so everyone feels disconnected - everyone wants to leave right now so joining this team as a new member will 100% be depressing and lonely - company has definitely gotten more frugal - product has become very cash grabby and it's clear we have the tackiest approaches to making revenue - it's impossible to launch large scale projects/changes - stock price has consistently gone down in the past 5 years (-70%)...it feels like we're on a sinking ship
