Pros

Great pay and perks. The unlimited PTO isn't a sham like at other companies which expect you to work even more. It's a really flexible work environment. As a software engineer, this has been by far the most talented team of engineers I've had the chance to work with. The technical challenges are interesting, and I learned a ton from watching some of the smartest developers I've seen tackle these problems. The codebase has its pros and cons, but in general there's a lot of really smart people being very deliberate about their development work.

Cons

The info shared by management in all-hands meetings is more like propaganda than an actual business outlook. This is a bit of an overstatement, but every all-hands meeting is just about trying to spin business metrics to make everything seem fine. And then, suddently: layoffs! Everything settles down, starts to seem fine again. And then... layoffs! It's gotten really hard to trust the vision and transparency of the leadership team as the economic environment has shifted. From a product team perspective, it feels like there's a bit too much process. Not overwhelmingly so, but the weeks we invest into OKR tracking, quarterly planning, etc. don't seem to justify the marginal benefits. Also: there's an underinvestment in product management. Existing PMs are overstaffed, and eng teams are often tasked with prioritizing product decisions that we are not really qualified to make

Pros

Company has made comp changes in favor of the sellers to help us maximize earning potential despite strong macro headwinds.

Cons

Sales teams do not get the support from CSM teams they need. With move in comp plan to penalize for churn - we end up doing a lot of CSM work which hurts our ability to grow. The BDR team also needs some development.
