Pros

- Twitter has more integrity than other companies. We respect the user's voice as well as our employees. - Twitter employees are passionate about changing the way the world communicates. You get to work with a diverse group of individuals who share a common mission. - Twitter promotes from within. You get an opportunity to expand beyond your current expertise and scope. You are always learning. - Despite growing 10x in my time here, I actually feel that our talent level has increased from the early days. We are able to attract the best talent in engineering, sales, sales marketing, comms, legal, BizDev and finance.

Cons

- A rotating door of product management leadership has hindered the product strategy for many years.

Pros

The team is amazing and everyone is very passionate about what they do. Management is very open and approachable. The HQ is absolutely inspiring with tremendous perks including healthy breakfast, lunch and dinner. Excellent perks for regional offices as well that try to emulate HQ the best way possible.

Cons

Team is growing very quickly so hands on training is lacking at times. Basically sink or swim environment so not ideal for all personalities.
