Pros
^ DEI initiatives ^ Exciting product space and roadmaps ^ Members love the product ^ Team members are mostly passionate and smart folks to work with ^ Good compensation
Cons
^ Overworked ^ Projects tend to lean towards menial work that often doesn't match what people think you'd be doing elsewhere with your title ^ Inexperienced leaders who broadcast a "bottoms up" organization when in reality it is very much "top down" ^ Most leaders who are managers of managers in the product organization have only done product or product adjacent work at Peloton and don't embrace new thought leadership from individuals with diverse experience from other organizations. This leads to a 'we know best' approach that dampens creativity, collaboration, and growth opportunities ^ Some leaders still end up in rooms with more junior employees giving non-stop feedback on their work. When will the leaders at within the product team switch to a mindset of empowerment of others vs empowering others to execute on their specific ideas?
