Pros

I love the people on my team and the sense of community on in-office days.

Cons

- The CEO has driven our stock price into the ground by mismanagement and a failure to focus on revenue. - How can Fastly be profitable when they're way overpaying sales staff? - Work life balance is a total joke. People do not respect boundaries and there's no consideration given to those who have commitments outside of work. - Leadership seems to have no interest in the PEOPLE doing the work. They love to walk around the office and pretend to care, but there is nothing more than surface level fake smiles and small talk.

Pros

If you are fortunate enough to be hired under a strong, mature, professional, and caring manager, you can survive. A great boss can provide you with the necessary air cover and guidance through the quagmire that is the Fastly environment.

Cons

C-Suite CEO HR Everything not related to company profitability.
