Pros

There are lots of fun technical growth opportunities in both new and existing products. The culture is very informal, in a good way - managers are willing to give a lot of responsibility regardless of your level and people are generally willing to collaborate and help out whenever necessary. The company adapted well to the pandemic and the culture of hybrid/remote work is solid.

Cons

The company has grown rapidly over the last few years, which has come with lots of process additions and changes.

Pros

Supportive people, a strong culture, and meaningful flexibility are the biggest positives. I've had the chance to work with thoughtful colleagues who care about doing good work and helping each other succeed. There are solid opportunities to learn, build relationships across teams, and contribute in a way that feels impactful.

Cons

Workloads can be heavy during busy periods, and priorities can sometimes shift quickly (which is expected in growing companies)

Pros

Remote work and decent pay

Cons

Really depends on the team, however middle management needs to be addressed. Toxic culture that truly depends on who your manager is. Silent layoffs are made to seem "Performance-based", then job is re-posted at a reduced range. Proceed with caution and understand that HR is not your friend.
