Pros

Nextdoor is a lean team made up of incredibly dedicated, intelligent individuals. It has an inspiring culture where people are truly passionate about the product we are building and the potential we have to make a difference in people's lives. Living in Silicon Valley, there is no shortage of companies with great perks and fun working environments. What sets Nextdoor apart is the commitment to build something meaningful - a product that has the power to change the way we interact with our neighbors - led by exceptionally intelligent, product-minded individuals, with genuine passion for the company's mission.

Cons

It is extremely difficult to identify many "cons" to working at Nextdoor. Expect to work hard and take on real responsibilities from day one.

Pros

Flexibility in the schedule. Easy to request holidays. Possibility to work from home. No phone calls.

Cons

This company wants to give the image that they make the world a better place and that they stand for community. The reality has a bitter taste. There is no community within the team, the tasks given are boring and repetitive. You don't feel valued and you definitely don't feel that you are doing something positive. As a customer service agent, you will spend most of your time doing moderation of content from the Nextdoor's users meaning you see a lot of toxic posts, private messages. Most of the requests you will receive by emails are deletions of account. The management doesn't consider the team's feedbacks. They don't learn because nobody cares in this company. There is a lack of motivation. There is also a tons of bugs, you spend your time filing tickets but it takes months to be solved. The knowledge base is not efficient at all. They will use you and then get rid of you once they have no choice but giving you a permanent contract. In this company, you will not grow, you will make two steps backward. There is no incentives. Nextdoor is not an interesting platform. It is just another way to make money but they don't bring any value to the world. They create more tensions between neighbors. This company is a big fail and they ignore it.
