Pros

- You can get experience with many different platform and tools, even so the tech isn't in the center in the company (500/2500 are tech workers) - Some workers are really fun and smart. - Working from home while the Covid Time, could take your monitor and keyboard and mouse to your home.

Cons

- Work-life balance does not really exist, the US guys pretend that they care about the Israeli Time Zone, but they never, If you want to be more involved you have to work on evening/nights. (Most of the guys in infra group are in us) - You can be the best worker ever, work so hard, but if you are not part of the US clique or the Israeli clique (yes, even different cliques!), don't except to get appreciation, don't except to get promoted. - Lots of politics (And Titles matter!!!) with high level mangers/directors spending lot of time on micromanagement. - Because of the fast growing, and people who "were first" got prompted, the technical management seems really disorganized, and working like its still a startup (of 2500 employees!!!) but talk like its an enterprise with targets and formal things. - There is no transparency, you don't really get explanations why you need to move a team or why there is managers change or organization changes, everything is a mystery. - New people are coming, people leave or get fired....like...everyday...I've never seen something crazy like this, and most of the time its really surprising.

Pros

The people. My peers in marketing are experienced, fun, and whip-smart. Colleagues, even those long gone, have continued to be supportive of one another in ways I've not seen at other companies. The networking is amazing. Although it may also be trauma bonding.

Cons

Marketing is always the scapegoat here and will always get hit hard when there are layoffs. In early summer 2025 they laid off nearly the entire product marketing team - from 26 people to 2- and "replaced" them with AI. Morale never recovered, the messaging has never been clearly communicated since then, and the worst part is CEO Henry Schuck went on a podcast to brag about it. Talk about out of touch. In the entire time I worked there, marketing leadership was sorely lacking. There has never been clear direction. This is still a problem with the new CMO, who is both heavily involved at a micro level and yet opaque about important things the whole department should know. And now the constant trimmings... Er, layoffs... no -- "exits" -- have gotten even more extreme. We're just wholesale replacing standard, strategic marketing positions and even teams with agencies. Which is quite a look for a billion dollar company. It might be worth it to work here for 6 months or a year if you can manage for the experience and connections, but the constant strategic switch-ups and looming inevitability of layoffs will wear you down. And soon you'll be looking for an escape route so you can say "you can't lay me off, I quit."
