Pros
Etsy is the most human place I've ever worked. There's a culture of kindness and respect. It's a great combination of fast paced and dynamic with a inclusive and supportive environment.
Cons
Sometimes things can to be too process heavy, like the answer to a problem to layer a process on top of a process. Etsy has a culture of constant improvement, which is great, but constant change can be a little unsettling.
Senior leadership has changed alot in the years since the pandemic highs and it's not quite stabilized. Overvalued executors and undervalued those with high EQ and people leadership. Promoted executors into senior roles and then they floundered and exited, or worse they chased away better potential fits for those roles who were overlooked.
