      Pros

      Competitive base salary, stock price is currently in the single digits so if you join now there's a chance for upside, good benefits, many coworkers are genuinely kind and helpful people.

      Cons

      Incompetent senior leadership team that takes no responsibility for their decisions that have now impacted the revenue of the business and the plummeting stock price, no work/life balance, total 180 on supporting remote work and then flip flopping a few months later to require RTO 4 days/week with insufficient notice, review/bonus structure is laughable, all hands meetings are heavily scripted and used to gaslight employees.

      Pros

      - Great base comp - Unlimited PTO - Good food at offices

      Cons

      - Leadership is incompetent. This company will die and when it does, it will be no one's fault other than Evan. - If you disagree with leadership and speak up, you will be punished. All SMC VPs hired each other from past companies. They are all corporate ladder climbers from Meta with no morals. - Being a leader at Snap means leading through fear and regularly throwing tantrums in conference rooms. - The ads business is a joke. No matter how many ex-[insert big tech name] engineers work on the product, you can't monetize an audience of 13 year olds or people who's sole use case for this app is inappropriate. - There is truly nothing redeeming about this business, B2C or B2B. It's all smoke and mirrors. I've never seen the population of monetizable users grow, it's only gone down since I've joined. To offset this we acquire the cheapest users possible to appease investors who see straight through this BS.
