Pros

We work hard and fast here at Instacart. That leads to a lot of momentum and speed on many projects, and you can truly launch projects and programs in a short amount of time. If you're entrepreneurial, this is a great place to test your influence and mettle.

Cons

We're not well organized as a company. The operational cadence needs improvement. Processes need to be documented and followed upon. It's not always clear who has the authority to make a decision, so ultimately it goes to the very top, which is quite ineffective.

Supportive, caring culture

Pros

I've never experienced a culture like the one that I have at Instacart. Unlike most companies, when they say unlimited time off, they mean it. When they say they support working parents, they mean it (and make sure that their managers are following that guidance). When they say they value diversity, they mean it (majority female C-suite!). The culture simply can't be beaten. My team is beyond supportive of one another, and we all strive to lift up each other. The org is also large enough that there seems to be a job for every talent and skill level.

Cons

Pay is not usually commiserate for comparable jobs at other companies, and teams sometimes do not collaborate.
