Pros

- Smart people - Good work-life balance. - Lots of interesting (both in a good way and a bad way) things to work on. - Tremendous upside both intellectually and financially. - The product is actually cool once you cast off the stereotype that it's just for middle-aged white women in Kansas.

Cons

- Food is average at best - No gym - Onboarding process for new engineers needs work, but it's getting better. - Company plan for shedding the initial stereotypes is not clear. - The office floor plan / open layout / lighting sucks. - There are some stupid political undertones brewing in the engineering org. I suppose that's inevitable, though, as the company grows.

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
