The right place for few, the wrong place for most

Pros

*People are bright here, and mostly good at their jobs. *People care about their work *The benefits and office are great

Cons

*Like a lot of tech companies, people are promoted into manager roles and then given little to no guidance or supervision for how to be a good manager, which negatively effects subordinates *Hard work alone isn't rewarded here - you must have the right personality (aka drink the kool aid...and a lot of it) to move up. *If someone does have the "Stripe" personality, don't expect their failings to be acknowledged. They will continue to be promoted and kept within the company because people love them. *This isn't a company for someone entry-level to join if they want to have flexibility to move to other departments.

Pros

The sky is the limit when you work at Stripe. Not only is there upwards mobility, but cross function mobility (which is looked at as just as much of a success). My team sticks to our core values, and it truly helps empower the work that we do. If you want to be able to make a difference in the world, check Stripe out.

Cons

Stripe is a Startup moving into the corporate side of things. That means changes are happening, which means the future is uncertain. So, if you don't like change, it probably isn't the right place for you.

Pros

I've worked at a few startups and most give lip service to truly transforming yourself. Stripe actually lives that promise. This company is building something truly transformational. The people, opportunity and culture is genuine and honest. Not everything is perfect but you know what to expect.

Cons

Growing pains of any high growth startup that's transitioning into adulthood.
