Pros
Talented teams. Smart people. Great pay. Great benefits. Very reasonable work expectations. Good work/life balance. Healthy culture.
Cons
Leadership is focused on any short term win at all costs. Willing to throw away mission for a few extra bucks. Rarely look at the long term. Don't care about users. Monetization metrics drive company actions, no balance with other KPIs. Much of the leadership is ex-meta, Intuit, or hulu. The mindset shows. Focused on discounts as a selling strategy, not improving the user experience or increasing value for members. Not a lot of connection to the mission or mindfulness within the company. PMs make all product decisions, PDs are not listened or treated as active partners in product. A PM's one off-the-cuff idea will win over a researched and proven-out one every time. Not a good place for career growth if you want to work on your craft or have a voice. PMs get sole credit for every project your team does. They rarely give any shoutouts or recognition to others on the team, such as engineers or product designers that actually do all the work. PDs are rarely included in meetings on their projects, so often a game of telephone without being able to contribute to solving the problem and framing the solution. Opportunities that arise from research almost never get prioritized. Very little design thinking or iterative UX/UI. Product overall has terrible UX. Poor choice of management because it's a lot of wasted talent and resources. PDs have great insights on what to build, but their voices are silenced.
