Pros
- Very inclusive, diverse and caring. - Look to build ppl up, especially ICs. - Is willing to hear where they can improve and what they could do better.
Cons
- Is very much a "yes" person company. Success here is strongly based on your ability to say "no" through saying "yes" and swaying the conversation around. - To succeed here you must be a strong ppl person and one who can read a room.

Pros
The core values are often brought up in many circumstances. Employees come first and that always resonated with me. The business and tech vision is well curated and communicated. Any employee who attends the various all hands would have a clear understanding of what’s the most important thing for the company. There is plenty of career frameworks and tracks for everyone’s ambitions. Expectations for each role are clear and how promotions happen as well. There are a lot of people working in tech which leads to a lot of code being code and shipped on the releases. Lots of hiring and the ration of direct reporta is healthy. Work life balance was the best. Comp package was really good with the stocks. Benefits also really good.
Cons
Culture somewhat diluted with all the hiring in last 5 years. A few bad apples can be really toxic and ruin it. Hard to deal with and harder to turn around. Xpresso is sold as a proper development tech, and despite the advantages it locks developers down to non transferable skills and to a good comp package. That makes it near impossible to move to another company and compete with other candidates that have industry standard skills. Career moves into more senior roles is often linked to a magic opportunity or luck of being in the right place in time. Lots of hiring from the outside for senior roles but not enough promotion from within.
