Working conditions. Compensation. Culture is excellent. The idea of giving credit on a regular basis is very rare in the valley. Amenities Benefits.

Cons

Somewhat reduced problem space. Size if you are into larger company Foreign company, although that is probably a plus (Australia).

Pros

Free lunch Flexibility of work hours

Cons

Toxic culture Pay below market rate and boast about it Too many levels of management now Expected to be on call always Agree with the majority or be cast out If you spend too much time actually doing work, or focusing on fixing customer issues, than you will be told off for not being a team player, and doing too many commits. Be careful what mention in 1:1's as it will all be used against you Be careful what write on Stride, as it will also be misinterpreted and used against you You are required to spend extra hours blogging about everything you did, as otherwise you will be deemed as not performing at all Every manager has their favourites and unless you are a favourite, you will have 0 chance of promotion or even having your thoughts listened to. It is not a collaborative environment anymore, that disappeared years ago. The advertised values are a joke. Don't "hurt" the customer? Why do team leads punish people for working on long running issues in JIRA? Be the change you seek? If you do something that 1 person on a team of 50 is vocal against, then you get punished verbally and at review time. Just 2 examples I have seen .... not good enough. Either live the values the way they were intended when this was a tiny startup, or scrap them and go for the bigger company style awful values that are actually real inside the building but not flashy to advertise that we can swear :( All in all, I can not recommend this company anymore to any of my friends.
