Pros

Cool tech, functional programming, the whole shebang. Compensation is competitive with other top companies in the area. Growing quickly, you can tell that there has been significant investment into technology from up top.

Cons

Engineering culture is abrasive. Disagreements are natural, but there is a concerning amount of bad-mouthing behind people's backs about technological decisions. There is definitely some unhealthy competition within teams as well as cross-team. I would not say that it is close to Uber levels of bad, but as the company scales at the rate that it has it will MOST DEFINITELY get out of hand. The negatively is contagious and its spread has been visible for some time. Transparency has also gone down significantly since the acquisition and it's unclear what Walmart leadership has planned for certain divisions.

I really appreciate you taking the time to leave detailed feedback for us. It seems that your experience at Jet was less than incredible, I hope we can get to the bottom of some of your concerns. It's great to hear you felt that compensation was competitive with top companies, and saw the excitement in our growth. Keeping our core values alive at Jet is very important to us. I am concerned to hear that there is an unhealthy amount of negativity on the team. I would really like to hear from you directly and can assure you that we have a zero tolerance for retaliation. Please reach out to me, let's get this concerns addressed. Mike H., Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer
