Pros
I'm a little sad to see some of the recent negative reviews that people have been writing, because those reviews don’t convey the Pinterest I work at. I’d read those review with a grain of salt if I were you. If you work hard, you get recognized. If you bring good ideas to the table, your colleagues listen. I’ve never found the need to promote myself or “manage up” like at other companies in the valley. You are recognized for working hard and making an impact. And the people you get to work with are smart and humble and genuinely want to be around each other all of the time. Of course Pinterest has its bumps. It wouldn’t be a startup if there weren’t any bumps. The management team works hard to keep Pinterest’s culture strong by eliminating toxic and unhealthy situations. As a result some of the teams as of late, are stronger than ever. So believe what you want, but hopefully you’ll see through some of the other negative reviews as they really don’t convey what an awesome company Pinterest is to work for and the people who work here.
Cons
Our offices are split up because we are growing and there isn't room for all of us in one building. I don't blame Pinterest for this though. There's no place that will fit us all!
