Pros
- Growth, Growth, Growth - RSU packages are extremely valuable (4.2X stock growth over 24 months!) - Benefits are nice (unlimited vacation, WFH etc.) - Still a lot of unsolved hard engineering challenges - Strong engineering culture - A mission (economic empowerment) that's worth fighting for - Positive impact on businesses
Cons
- major innovation is getting harder to get to. Case in point introducing something like Square Cash it's challenging now due to inter-dependencies on other teams - certain internal departments are not as strong as engineering - while high level of decentralization is good, lack of strong mandate makes it difficult to push for larger changes
