Pros

-Benefits look great on paper -Some talented, hardworking colleagues (if they stick around) building great products. -Remote first

Cons

-High turnover: it felt at least 3/4 people a month were leaving at one point. Whole (critical) teams leaving, after some leadership changes (internally dubbed as the Exodus). -Shady performance reviews -Hiring practices were questionable at best, with strategy shifting based on leadership whims. -Layoffs and redundancies meant skeleton teams expected to deliver the same results with fewer resources. -Unlimited leave means nothing if you’re too overworked to take it.

Pros

Enjoyed the people. Good communication culture.

Cons

Tough to move upwards. Lots of moving parts when it came to product offering and internal goals.
