Pros

The people really are fantastic! Smart and deeply caring, almost universally. This is a product-first org who cares deeply about the customer and has a phenomenal culture built to mirror the customer experience, so you know its embedded deep. Their strategy also feels very clear (and sensibly aligned with a deep understanding of their customers) which is all I really want as an employee.

Cons

Going through the growing pains of any private tech company at this stage/size: may struggle to prioritize, analysis paralysis, finding their balance of humanity-to-efficency as they scale, etc. Nothing at all glaring if you know and like this kind of environment.

Pros

Great benefits Really nice ICs who do great work

Cons

- Design leadership is backbitey and toxic - they trash talk other teams and specific ICs regularly. - there’s no culture of feedback except negative feedback and most of it is unfounded or misguided - constant focus on “juice” and superficial vanity projects and metrics sucked the life out of the app and added a lot of cruft. - senior directors gaslight designers form other teams into quitting or feeling like they should quit. - Directors will align on you to have a bad review and then won’t allow you to transfer teams because your review was bad.

Pros

Everyone is very smart and kind. You'll be able to find challenging work to take on.

Cons

The culture is very inclusive, and everyone is quirky in a way. For people who don't have very unique interests or hobbies, you might feel out of place.
