Toxic environment. STAY AWAY

Anonymous employee

Pros

- Successful app that a lot of people love - Good pay, unlimited vacation and flex work from home - "good" if you just want to bide your time and get a paycheck - A lot of cute perks like massages and candy drawers but what good is that if there's no positive culture?

Cons

- Terrible, tone-deaf management. Their approach is to pretend like everything's OK and lie. - A lot of middle managers float at the top doing nothing. No leadership whatsoever. - Not innovative. Expect to be stuck doing maintenance. Expect passion projects to be killed abruptly. Won't further your career. - They reward sheep that follow orders. Not for out-of-the-box thinkers. - Good luck with your career trajectory if you're a woman.
