Pros

You don't have to work hard.

Cons

It's become abundantly clear that the company operates off of the whims of the Emmett. Only his pet projects and initiatives see the light of day and he has little to no interest in personal growth, career development, or maturing of Twitch the company. Twitch's refusal to formalize a CTO has grown past disfunction. Work super hard and never be appreciated because what you're working on isn't Emmett's idea. Teams are hemorrhaging people, yet people prefer to chalk it up to "just a few disgruntled employees" rather than attempting to fix the problem. Recruiting even tells people to go and try to drown out the bad glassdoor reviews with good ones. Nice joke. It is now impossible to recommend anyone to work here; I've advised friends/family to stay away. Go where you might be appreciated; go where you have a career path. Any accolades that could have been laid on Twitch are now gone. Even the perks are no longer a selling point.
