Pros

The only pro I can think of is being able to work from my home 3-4 times out of the week.

Cons

They sell you the dream during interview, but this place is so mismanaged. The leadership here is horrendous and the worst I've ever experienced. There is no foundation, structure, and poor communication in all departments. They have a "no jerks" policy - but all leadership are jerks and just out for themselves. The enablement and onboarding support is very surface level and does not set you up for success. They are laying people off behind closed doors and are not being transparent on the reasons. I would advise not trusting HR and recording/document everything even if you think you won’t need it. Steer clear from this place, and don't give into the lies or the hype. There's also a lack of diversity the only place you’ll see diversity is in entry level positions not upper management

Pros

awesome benefits, very friendly people, flexible work hours

Cons

leadership has a very outdated mindset for building, marketing, and selling the product. Certain departments within the company are run better than others, but it's 50/50 if you'll be joining a functional team, or a chaotic mess with no direction. They claim to abide by a set of company values, but they constantly contradict their own values, leading to a high employee churn rate. Incredibly mismanaged, consistently putting people in high-power positions who have little relevant experience. also a constant battle to be paid what you're worth unless you're in a senior leadership position

Pros

My coworkers were interesting. Pretty good flexibility and PTO policy

Cons

This company will absolutely run you into the ground if you let them. Shady hiring and firing practices and a good amount of leadership is completely incompetent. They are terrible judges of talent and allow completely unqualified people into the organization making your job 10x harder than it needs to be. I was doing 4 people's jobs and was somehow only rewarded with more work. Kudos and values are only relevant if it props up a specific agenda. Multiple instances of nepotism and flat out unacceptable behavior from senior leadership. Don't trust the smoke and mirrors, they are going nowhere. They are not a unicorn , they don't have groundbreaking technology, they are simply mediocre at best. If you're absolutely desperate for a job then maybe accept an offer until you find something that won't crush your soul.
