Good (but with some issues)

Pros

- Work life balance is great. - Benefits are generous. - Mostly great co-workers (you’ll actually want to spend time with them). - Opportunities for professional development (they’ll pay for courses and trainings). - Managers are genuinely concerned with employee wellbeing.

Cons

- Some products lack strategy or long term vision. Leadership puts it to teams of entry and mid-level employees to “solve” this instead of taking responsibility themselves. - Bullies and toxic people exist in spite of a culture dominated by niceness and positivity. And because of the culture, the harm they cause is swept under the rug.

Pros

Good company culture. Good benefits - healthcare, 401k, unlimited PTO, team events, etc. Plenty of room for growth and promotion for those who want it. Fast growing company, so always new things to explore and learn from.

Cons

Growing company, so might not be for people who like the status quo or don’t like change. Snacks run out early in the week, so not so much left by Thursday/Friday. Have to pay for parking.

Pros

Good work life balance and one of the top silicon valley company to work with.

Cons

Promotions and hiring is almost becoming depends on manager instead of deserving candidates. This will ultimately make employees leave the company.
