Mission: Our mission is to bring everyone the inspiration to create a life they love.
From intentional self-care programming to enhanced mental health benefits, Pinterest has been taking steps to empower employees with resources to do their best work and reorganize their lives to meet today's unprecedented needs. Our CHRO Jo Dennis reflects on the team's approach.
As we settle into our new normal, we are supporting our team members with useful resources and an open dialogue. This month, we launched Pintentions, a four-week, self-care initiative with a deliberate focus on Pinployees and their well being. Each week our leaders are sharing collated resources and best practices focused across four pillars: prioritizing, controlling, connecting and learning. The goal is to help employees simplify and streamline work while connecting in a meaningful way. We’re in this—and we’ll get through this—together.
At Pinterest, you’ll build a product that inspires hundreds of millions of people to be more creative, every day. Not only can you help empower others to discover things they love, and go do them in real life, but we have cultivated an inclusive workplace that encourages you to discover and explore new passions in your own life.

One of the best embodiments of our company culture is a two-day internal conference called KnitCon. At KnitCon, Pinployees share their talents and passions with one another in live sessions. We are a product built to help empower pinners to discover the things they love and go out into the world to do those things. We think our employees should take this same approach to their lives and bring their full selves to work, while always discovering new passions.

I have been working at Pinterest full-time (More than a year)
Pros
In my time at Pinterest, I've grown tremendously through the support of my team. I've been given the chance to work on high impact, challenging problems, and can see the direct throughline of my output to the company's mission. My time at Pinterest has flown by, mainly because of the great and challenging work, the great coworkers, and a product I personally use and can stand behind.
Cons
Decisions are sometimes made without transparency, or take a long time, which sometimes means IC's have to scramble to hit goals. But we're focusing on making decisions quicker and I think we're on the right track.

Application
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Pinterest (San Francisco, CA) in October 2019.
Interview
The process was fast. Got a coding assessment in late September. Once i did the challenge, the recruiter got back to me in 2 days to schedule a karat video interview . I was then invited for an onsite in SF. The onsite was 4 interviews back to back and the interviewers were nice and smart. I then got an offer call after 2 weeks following the onsite interview.
