Pros

There are so many good people working here, and the product and mission are so important. I don't think the issues are so bad that we will fail, but it's sad seeing how unhappy people are. I think things are more difficult than they need to be due to poor planning and bad management.

Cons

This is specifically for the Engineering department. The guy who used to give people he liked back rubs to show his approval is now leading the whole department, and the culture has become toxic. The atmosphere once encouraged collaboration, open discussion, and good work-life balance, but not any longer. These days, the way to succeed is to put your head down, don't ask any questions, work long hours (working late and weekends is common), do NOT work from home, don't take too much "unlimited" PTO, and never complain. Anxiety, fear, frustration, and burnout are also common. Good leadership is missing.

Pros

Working with the best, everyone motivated to the same goal, and trusting the knowledge and expertise from peoples past experiences. It’s always a challenge but we face it together.

Cons

Nowhere is perfect for everyone. It’s a new challenge every day and you have to find a way to overcome and ease those hardships and if that’s not your cup of tea, then this isn’t the place for you. Benefits aren’t bad, but hopefully will improve as the company does better.
