Pros

-Super talented and kind, creative folk -Solid benefits -Tons of workplace parties/perks -Fun projects and the clout of working at a recognizable company -Mission of helping connect people is lovely — always happy to hear friends who meet/have good experiences with Tinder

Cons

-Horrible leadership, especially from the exec team. I mean CEOs hardly last over a year and they here is no clear direction (this goes for all C-Suite) -Pushing new revenue and dumb features that launch and die quickly rather than focusing on creating a great app experience -Little to no process — company has tons of people in positions where they don’t know what they are doing -Too many cooks in the kitchen…way too much feedback from everyone, which dilutes the product in multiple directions -Not competitive compensation

Pros

Great company culture and good tech to work on. Fun stack

Cons

Some managers aren't the best which could cause issues for some morale on some teams. Although outside of that, most things are good.
