Pros

Extremely talented and supportive team, open and collaborative culture, fast-paced, lots of opportunities to work on a range of projects and grow your skills. Clear alignment throughout the company to start and end with the customer. Data scientists have ownership of their projects, but with the data infrastructure support to build and launch large-scale machine learning models. Nice perks including lunch and dinner, snacks, fitness subsidy and transportation credits, flexible work hours.

Cons

The company is rapidly growing and things move fast, often need to pick things up on the fly or quickly shift priorities

Pros

Recently joined - Kaz is fantastic. There's been basically no blockers to us shipping. Very long hours but you can feel the impact in the work you're doing

Cons

Not much right now. Things are a little chaotic but that's what I signed up for. EPD leadership is maybe a little lacking

Pros

Meaningful problems to solve. Stock upside with right macro. Aggressive AI usage

Cons

996 / hustle culture amongst newer folks. Love having motivated teammates but the comp is B-tier at best (unless you’re the CEO, at 4371x the avg employee) New product folks are a mixed bag. Some work really hard and are super sharp. Some talk about working hard and take credit for product work from others. SF office dying through firing and resignations - expect to be asked to visit Miami and Toronto frequently. Tenured employees seem to be assumed to be low performers
