      Pros

      - Square is an inspiring, mission-driven company. - I love our customers and hearing firsthand how we're building something that makes their lives easier and better. - We have all of the stability and perks of a big company but still retain the passion and spirit of a startup. We keep teams small so we can move quickly and get things done! - We have an extremely strong leadership team with leaders from diverse backgrounds and experience. I'm also impressed with the brilliant female talent we've been able to attract and retain (especially when the rest of the valley seems to struggle with this). - Jack is the real deal! He truly wants to build the best business for his customers and his employees and does so with humility, confidence and raw smarts. - I've been here for many years and I still learn every day.

      Cons

      The company has learned and grown a lot over the years - no cons at the moment!

      Pros

      Big picture product vision - also leads to a wide variety of work areas and opportunities Rallying purpose - great alignment from employees around values A real business - with the benefits of being both a public company and a startup Transparency to employees

      Cons

      Lots of opportunities (payments, software, lending) means lots of different business needs and demands for attention, though company is more focused over past 18 months

      Pros

      Very friendly and helpful coworkers Challenging projects that engage my learning muscles Employees are encouraged to speak up and management listens, including in public company-wide meetings Top level of company is trying hard to hire and putting resources behind recruiting women and POC in tech, and company is also highly supportive of LGBTQ people Facilities have good coffee bar, mini kitchens plus top of the line laptops, monitors, and workspaces, they do not skimp on gear here Onsite wellness like 20 min massage and chiro Highly transparent corporate culture

      Cons

      Internal reorgs make it hard to remember new team names/organization Hard to get a chiro or massage appointment except a month in advance (womp womp)
