It's fine.

Pros

Lots of opportunity. Leadership has a bias towards action and change. Some new leaders and managers have great experience.

Cons

They seem to be pushing out the old guard. Incredibly stressful. Lack of understanding of technical constraints from leadership. They're hiring a LOT of agency designers in leadership, who don't have much experience actually shipping product.

Pros

Good WLB and 3-year equity vest schedule. Good people and generous environment.

Cons

Shifting priorities all the time because leaders are constantly coming and going. I've had 5 managers in 2.5 years, 4 of whom were amazing. Final manager showed extreme favoritism and bias - they couldn't care less about your career development or growth. Getting promoted is extremely difficult because career ladder and expectations are not clearly defined. Poor paternity/maternity leave policies. Constantly looking over your shoulder to see who is next on the chopping block (layoffs every 6 months basically).
