Pros

Great remote onboarding. They make an effort to ensure you get connected to everyone and understand the products.

Cons

Once you’re out of onboarding, get ready for the fire hose. And don’t expect to make grand process change. They are stuck in their inefficiency and seem fine with it. You’ll be too busy reminding people to review documents to spend time on problems that would create actual value. I’m surprised developers don’t completely run the place (maybe that would be better). There’s a cult mentality in the company. If you are a developer and / or a prior intern who started here and worked your way up, you’re tops. If you’re a program manager, there is a limit to how far you can grow here. The product team needs serious help and are not pulling their weight. Oh and whatever amazing culture they had being a scrappy company has been lost; Amazon execs took over C-Suite.

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.
