      Used to be a great company. Now is all about reorgs.

      Pros

      Great colleagues, some people are really competent, but always the same get promoted.

      Cons

      Where do I start from? Reorgs, many people fired, no more values.

      Pros

      Etsy was an amazing magical place with a fantastic culture. It promoted creativity, entrepreneurship, and community. The people were super talented and would all pitch in at the drop of a hat to make things happen, no one was above pitching in.

      Cons

      Then Wall street arrived. Leadership cut 200+ jobs to make the bottom line attractive for investors. Lots of amazing talent left, people are now over worked, the place resembles a wake with the funeral soon to follow.

      Not what I expected

      Pros

      Pretty good benefits. Culture has a very mature attitude about failure and human error. Interesting scale.

      Cons

      "Startup-like" culture is in the process of being erased, due largely to recent switch to publicly-traded status. Lots of layoffs. Constant priority inversion on all teams. Leadership unable to give a sense of direction.
