Pros

- The culture used to be the highlight, but it's declining, though still better than many other tech companies. - Your voice is heard and valued. - Colleagues are friendly, talented, and easy to collaborate with. - Excellent benefits, including unlimited PTO, medical coverage, and more. - The strong company branding opens up more opportunities for career growth.

Cons

- The shift to a performance-based culture has made things unbearable. I’m now working 12-15 hours a day to meet leadership’s overly aggressive monthly goals, and I’ve been seeing a therapist for over six months because of it. - Transparency has disappeared. It used to be better, but it also depends heavily on the team you’re in. - Some managers are ineffective. They focus only on managing people without improving their own skills or finding better solutions for the team.

Pros

The teams you work with are phenomenal. The knowledge combination between an internal customer facing teams, engineering product development teams, and Sales are unmatched.

Cons

Excessive use of PIPs to oust employees after multiple high revenue launches, with no explanation, actual documentation, or factual data. Reviews have been adjusted to allow for terminations post pre-approved leaves. Salaries are a joke. You are always in a cover yourself mode 24/7. Management reviews are consistently a 2 or 3 out of 5 no matter what. If a team decides you aren’t in the group, management will put you on a “unofficial” PIP without telling you, in order to surprise you at a later date. Even if they are unfounded. Beware of possibility of negative backlash post launches. They will feel the need to assign blame ( such as for timelines or issues related to bugs). Regardless of performance or level of involvement. This is an enormous company with many large paths for career advancement. But micro management is rampant, leaving little room for doing the daily expectations of your actual role. This degrades your opportunities for career advancement.
