Pros

Pinterest is the definition of a hypergrowth company, and with that comes an inordinate amount of opportunity for growth. Culturally, it doesn't get much better.. once you have proven your ability to deliver high quality work, you're trusted to go above and beyond to impact Pinners or Partners in novel ways.

Cons

Pinterest is the definition of a hypergrowth company.. which means it is growing so fast that things break all of the time. From process changes to re-orgs, expect things to change frequently here. In my opinion, this is what creates the opportunity, though.
