Great perks and... not much else.

Pros

- The Benefits are amazing and probably the best in tech. - Flexibility, working from home, remotely, etc. - Still small enough to be able to pick things up and make them your own

Cons

- incredibly inept HR team. These people don’t know what they are doing. They are the first ones to hate feedback. They are never in the office, but spend large amounts of time in conferences saying how awesome we are. - some veteran employees can be toxic and passive-aggressive. They don’t want the company to change. - overall, the bar is low. You don’t come here to learn, you come here to play catch up with other leading companies. - too much uncertainty around real estate and office space. Do they even know what they are doing? Too much emphasis on happy hours and silly events rather than securing proper offices.

Pros

Good Benefits ($$$), plenty of time off

Cons

Bloated middle management is lazy, no company culture outside of offices (which we still don't have). Company is US centric. Everyone is expected to work till 8/9pm every night if you have colleagues in California. Even company-wide meetings are held out of working hours to suit California time.

Pros

Amazing perks, office is nice whenever I went in. Everyone friendly and welcoming. You do some interesting work and do get to work with some good people of all ages, sizes, and backgrounds. They have definitely got their diversity hiring on track and that’s about it.

Cons

We cannot be ourselves, we need to align with the US culture and their ways. Weekly 1:1s and a hour long team meetings (plus wider team meetings) are killing productivity and ICs interests in their day to day job. Why have a team of say 10 spend 10 individual hours collectively attending a meeting that should have been an email? Meetings should be with stakeholders and have an open catch up with a manager when needed or at least once a month to review progress. Not very always open! Bordering on being micromanaged to an inch of our lives but no one talks about it.
