Pros

Mission Lane has some of the smartest, kindest employees I've ever worked with. Truly enjoyable people who help each other in and outside of work. A great company culture, until you get laid off suddenly over Google Meet.

Cons

Two rounds of layoffs within four months. The teams keep getting leaner, and the executives keep saying everything is going well...until they lay off another round of folks who do the most work.

Pros

- My manager seemed to be very supportive and eager to set me up for success. - Interesting technology stack and space to improve things. - I was genuinely happy with the work I was doing at the time. - Good designers and developers on the product team. - Team members who were part of the layoff were extremely supportive, beyond any expectation I could have for that situation I found myself in. I will be forever grateful to that community.

Cons

- The CEO explicitly assured the company at an offsite that finances were great and layoffs wouldn't happen. Two weeks later, I was laid off. - The layoff occurred just four weeks before my scheduled paternity leave, causing immense, unnecessary anxiety. - Once you are out, you are erased. Management and former peers completely iced me out and never reached out again, exposing a deeply cold, phony and transactional culture.
