Pros

Interesting work , big challenges,a few awesome leaders

Cons

You will burnout giving your job everything without much thanks or respect. Many managers who are people pleasers & lack transparency- lies from leadership and expectations of crazy hours.

Mixed experience

Pros

- The company has an interesting product which seems to be making money - Working on engineering problems involving hard technical challenges and scale - Because the company doesn't have very good existing infrastructure, a lot of opportunity to learn/do things yourself, this really helps when looking at exit ops - Despite some language barriers with mainland China, the engineers at the IC level are generally pleasant to work with, smart and friendly - Team dependent but my managers cared about me and tried to create an environment where I could thrive

Cons

- Too little standardisation of infrastructure in engineering so it takes a lot of work to ship at a good pace - Infrastructure/platform teams are understaffed vs product teams. Too much 'unofficial on call' where you are needed despite not being officially on rotation - Very mixed experiences interacting with product management or more senior engineering leaders, and the decisions they make - I don't know how he really is, but most people seem to dislike Jack and/or actively try to avoid him - Very mediocre raises despite good ratings, and seems like there are large pay disparities above junior levels

It's Really Not That Bad

Pros

Good culture, there's teams and people who generally want to make the culture better. Really, really smart people. It's an exciting time to be part of the business and it's growth.

Cons

It's really not as bad as some reviews say. You can be stuck with a bad manager which is unfortunate and somehow bad managers end up in a managerial position which isn't great. There's also a lot of people who hate working here and stick around just to complain about hating working here and don't leave. But if you're able to make your own experience good and not listen to the negative/don't let those negative people bring you down, you'll end up having a really positive experience.
