Pros

Being mission driven is awesome. The culture and people is really what separated Nextdoor from other players in the tech space. Unfortunately, the culture and 200+ people were laid off due to elementary leadership.

Cons

Nextdoor has slowly been decaying from the inside out for years due to poor decision-making, incomplete to minimal product rollouts, mediocre and elitist leadership who don't know what business they are in. The company is run like a non-profit whose sole purpose is to build a kinder world. It's a great mission and one most people truly believe in, but you can't accomplish the mission if you don't focus on revenue. Good leadership has the ability to chew gum and walk at the same time, but unfortunately, the consistent failure from Sarah Friar n co. has resulted in product and morale decay and massive layoffs.
