Pros

- Worked with an amazing team. - Lots of very talented people you can learn from. - Able to reach millions of users. - When a problem occurs, there is no blaming game towards the individual. Both wins and loses belong to the whole team. It is always an opportunity to learn.

Cons

- Given the size of the company, bureaucracy can get in the way of getting things done. - There is a disconnect between senior leadership and the people doing the work. Company goals often do not seem reflected in your day to day work.

Pros

Great people, smart people. With new CEO, maybe things will get back

Cons

Been a horrible last 3 years. Non-stop re-offs, new leadership that cut everyone and brought in new people who don’t know anything. No clear priorities, no leadership.
