      Nepo at its finest

      Software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Decent compensation - Decent benefits - Nice work pace - Large engineering presence

      Cons

      - Don't expect growth unless you're coming from Square or somewhere that the engineering managers worked for before. Nepotism is extremely prevalent here. - You need broad shoulders to carry the blame you'll get when issues arise - Toast will hire less-experienced engineers to elevated positions, and then require the tenured employees to pick up the slack, all while never promoting from within.

      Meetings Overload

      Software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      -remote -generally nice and collaborative coworkers -benefits and comp if you joined at a low stock price.

      Cons

      -Crazy amount of meetings (20+ hours/week) to result in no decisions/progress. More often than not, there are times when you have 3-4 hours of back to back to back meetings and no time to take a dump or do actual work. Then if you are in an org that needs to interface with overseas teams, expect meetings at night from 8pm-10pm. This means no down time to watch TV, go out for date nights, putting your kid to sleep. I would not recommend to join such a team unless you are single or just really don’t like your family. -general disorganization where you need to monitor random channels with hundreds of people who shoot out random questions into the void. Requirements and design decisions change on a whim. -decisions by committee where everyone can provide different opinions and no one is there to make a final consensus.
