Business Outlook

Pros

Stripe is a thoughtful company that cares a lot about building high quality product, its customers, and its employees. For the most part team are rowing in the same direction to accomplish these goals, and the company does a solid job at broadcasting the importance of these things from the top levels.

Cons

However, while all this is true, it still can feel like at times Stripe isn't quite sure how to get there. So it knows what it wants, but people and teams can feel a lot of churn along the way. This friction is to be expected with growth, but at times it gives the feeling of a slight lack of focus.
