Pros

Product and Mission People Perks - insurance, PTO etc

Cons

HR are non - existent in this company Some teams are entirely overburdened while others flick through facebook Little recognition for employee ability and development opportunities No incentive to do more - other than its simply expected to survive Working to the point of burnout isn't how a billion dollar company should treat its employees/teams

Pros

Great company culture, supportive team, smooth onboarding process, strong career stability, and meaningful work. My interview experience was very positive, and the recruiting and onboarding teams were helpful, responsive, and professional throughout the process.

Cons

There is always a learning curve when joining a new company, especially while understanding internal systems and processes, but the team has been very supportive.
