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

- Well structured and well run organization - Thoughtful and meaningful measures are taken to create an inclusive and safe working environment - Some of the smartest people I've ever worked with - Incredibly transparent culture. The culture at Stripe is unlike any other. I feel so challenged by my peers and the values that we all operate by.

Cons

- Although I've always considered transparency as a positive, I realize that an environment as transparent as Stripe's isn't for everyone. Success and failures are visible to most so be prepared to receive feedback, give feedback and move quickly!

Pros

The people who work at Stripe are some of the brightest, friendliest and hardest working people I've ever met. I love that departments aren't completely isolated and I get to talk to people from different teams about what challenges they're tackling. As far as leadership goes, John and Patrick have a clear vision for what Stripe will become, and keep employees abreast of decisions and movement. I've been in roles where I've felt left in the dark so this is a welcomed change. One thing Stripe is really great about is internal movement. If you decide a role isn't a great fit for you it's pretty easy to transfer to another department. Oh, and the perks are pretty cushy.

Cons

While leadership is great, there are a select few within the middle management level that could have benefited from some training.
