Pros

Some of the brightest people at the IC level, but most of them leaving over the last year or two Usual tech benefits e.g. food, snack, happy hours (these have decreased) Work life balance great, can coast if you want to Parental leave and fertility

Cons

Nepotism everywhere - not many new hires who have actually interviewed, hiring process not respected, candidates will get the job if they know management even if they fail interview Toxic management, not intelligent with fragile egos - very Amazonian, no product innovation - always asked to copy competitors No accountability for decisions or attrition in company, poor employee retention farewells every month D&I is a joke, management has actively said to not continue focusing on diversity initiatives, all white male management often complaining it's hard to be a white man in this environment. No room for minorities here they're all leaving! Monitoring of private slack messages and usage

Pros

Was nice while it lasted

Cons

Team that used to work here was completely dissolved, and the application thrown out. Today the app is a thin skin over ancient, junk tech, in an effort to maximize profit for their owner, dating-app monopolist and serial privacy-violator Match Group
