Pros

- Base salary and stock options - Remote first workplace - Mission - Company events

Cons

- Benefit are terrible - Sales driven company. Hyper-focused hitting targets - Large company still working with a 'scrappy' startup mentality so every team is too lean and lack of established processes as well as not enough support for employees - High expectations of deliverables and false promises of additional headcount to support that does not happen. More head count is needed to support the vision - Micromanagement of budgeting process for every deliverable instead of just focusing on large budget items. This requires every annual development plan to go through review by CPO/CTO. Which also means very expensive all day meetings with senior leadership reading line by line through monthly updates and it fosters a VERY waterfall approach to operations and project management with an expectation of delivery by Dec 31st every year despite when the development started making for a very high pressure environment - It's still a boys club with favor given to their likeness. And relationship building based on title and privilege - Focus on the next best things and acquisitions (new shining object) instead of fixing what's broken or needs to be optimized and investing in that - People burnout quickly and quietly quite or outright leave because there is no point in arguing or trying to look for change and a more positive outlook
