Pros
- You're surrounded by smart people. - Benefits are great (100% paid healthcare, free lunch, free Starbucks), but don't mistake perks as culture.
Cons
- In 2017 the leadership made many decisions that have felt unfair to engineering and engineers have been punished for decisions that were made by people who are no longer here. - Because of all the pivoting, it's hard to feel accomplished by your work. - Career growth is reserved for people who are friends with the CEO. - Six engineers have left the company in the past three months. To put that in perspective, they started 2017 with 20 engineers, went down to 10 in July after layoffs, and haven't hired any engineers since. They're simply unable to maintain the volume and speed of work that product management and leadership request.
