Pros

Initial interview process was good and thoughtful. Onboarding was good and standard for tech. Amrita is incredible. Despite constantly hearing otherwise from every employee, I enjoyed Jack's leadership. Cash App has great culture (but maybe that's different after the layoff??) I was thankful for solid compensation and a handful of meaningful connections / relationships. Decent work / life balance. Nice offices.

Cons

Too much toxic gossip, indirect feedback and "mean girl" energy on the Administrative Assistant / Executive Assistant / EO Team. There's a deep rooted lack of professional safety and emotional stability. No development. Lack of appreciation, recognition and rewards. Stock price sucks. The Legal Team and the People Team are barely surviving. Most employees are absolutely miserable and talk about it all the time. The current EO team won't say it, but I will.....this team is overpaid compared to much more complex and taxing roles at the company. I don't see how it could get worse.
