Pros

Amazing experience to be part of Twitter during its huge growth years. Worked with incredibly smart people. Consistently challenged. Learned the most and experienced the most personal growth in my entire career.

Cons

Highly political sales org. Quality of middle-management in sales varied greatly. Company culture was very self centered. Product innovation was promised but never delivered.

Pros

- Smart & dedicated co-workers. Especially in engineering. - Good tooling, tech stack, services, etc with lots of cool projects addressing huge scale and cool technical problems - Potential for open source contributions and large impact (unusual for most companies of this size). - "Smaller" company feel even though there are ~2k engineers and ~4k people - Great pay, equity, benefits comparable to any of the top tech company - Twitter is an awesome product that actually impacts much of the world (even if everyone isn't tweeting)

Cons

- Some churn and attrition especially in product management leading to incoherent product decisions at times - Bad press (tech press loves to be dramatic and bash on Twitter) - Uncertainty about future/slowing growth via Live Video and other efforts (reflected in stock performance)
