Pros

Great colleagues. This is best thing about Twitter. You'll work with great people

Cons

-Work life balance. -Below industry averages wages. -A lot of politics. This creates a toxic environment and management engage with this behaviour rather than discourage it.

Amazing place to hang your hat

Pros

Every level can make an impact here. After 11 years, still feels like a start up, but with developing process/structure/policies. Twitter is a global brand name. If you like the spotlight, and getting lots of attention when you say "I work at Twitter," then its a great place for you. The company is competitive in salary, making big adjustments on promoting growth internally, hiring better leaders, hard workers, and people that really care about being a Global "NEWS" source. Great work balance. Amazing perks - Free food all day, booze, cell phone, gym, etc. No formal vacation policy and 5 months paid Mat/Pat leave by far the best in the country. They make it comfortable to work here.

Cons

Still stuck in the stigma of "social media" and wall street measuring success by one poor measuring tool - "Monthly Active Users." Not much else.

Pros

* Great technology stack. * Great service.

Cons

* It's a thoroughly dysfunctional company. * Everyone is terrified of taking responsibility for anything. Decisions don't get made. * The people in charge don't understand the service, and in the rare cases when they make decisions, they're based largely on what they think won't get them in trouble, not what will be set for the company or the service. * Salaries are low for experienced people.
