Pros

- The people truly make this company an amazing place to work. The level of dedication and productivity under which most teams operate here is unlike anything I've seen in a 10+ year professional career. Working and collaborating with high-performing people really takes you to a new level. - Work/life balance - Users love the product - Amazing workplace staff (chefs, front desk, custodial staff, security, etc) - Perks - Dog friendly offices - Employee communities have really helped shape the culture of Pinterest and are filled with the people that are passionate about making the company and product genuinely inclusive

Cons

- Pay is not top market if you're not an Eng - Lots of turnover and sometimes teams run too lean - Feels very bureaucratic when trying to get a promotion or apply internally for a different role

Pros

WLB Remote work (which is slowly ending). Strong ICs

Cons

Poor leadership vision, strategy, and execution. Rebranding products that already exist as net new to chase a headline. Unclear career growth unless you are internally connected to “the right people”. Middle management that is there to boost their career / repackage IC ideas as their own with zero credit. RTO rollout was botched leading to senior sellers leaving. Lots of toxic positivity and virtue signaling
