Pros

I would say all benefits offered are standard within the tech industry.

Cons

If you like stress, immense pressure, chaotic planning, indecisive CMO, and complete disregard for hard work, this is the place fo you! All jokes aside, If you're planning on working for their Marketing team, I'd reconsider (especially if you're a woman). IMO, it all stems from the leadership and "managers" in Marketing. They'll work you to the ground and as soon as you come up for air, take maternity leave, or ask for a more prioritized workload, you will be put on a "performance plan," laid off, or fired. Its like a "use it or lose it" policy, but for their own employees. To top it off, there's really no clear vision, path forward, or consistent alignment anywhere within the org. Good luck to anyone on these teams.

Pros

You choose when and how long you work, If you get the Instacart Shopper Card they promote, your earnings are deposited within minutes.

Cons

Before the Iran war, I was making about $10/hour - not that great. Since gas has increased in price, I'm very careful about the jobs I accept so I don't spend $5 or more on gas for a batch.
