Pros

Etsy truly does take care of their employees. Wonderful, supportive environment. Etsy really does care about their core missions and beliefs. They are very flexible and understanding with needing to work from home, or when things come up in life. Etsy has a very social culture. They work hard to listen to employee feedback, adjust, and adapt to things happening in society. They are 100% supportive of employee's outside interests and passions. They find ways to include and promote everyone's unique talents and interests into the culture of the company.

Cons

There's a lot of actual work to be done-- burn out is something I feel more than I would like to. While hard work is recognized at times, career development is not too clear. It kind of feels like a "create your own path/job title" with not too much guidance. Lots of consistent change happens at Etsy, which can be both a pro and a con!

Pros

Love the learning culture, great work-life balance, amazing benefits, and the amount of care that everyone has for everyone is very real. People really care about the greater good.

Cons

Working at a company that empowers folks to collaborate across teams sometimes means that it takes longer for the work to get done, but! all that means is greater end results. Not necessarily a con, but it is worth noting.
