      Great company - if you have a good manager

      Pros

      Worked with the smartest people I’ve encountered in my career. Perks are amazing compared to most companies, but not competitive with their peers so getting the best talent is difficult. Open heads are open for a long time, and lately have been hiring sub par. You stay for the people and the mission.

      Cons

      If they stay for the mission and the people, they leave because of their managers. The reviews about nightmare HR and politics are very real. Little opportunity for upward mobility. And there is NO accountability for managers - no incentive for them to be good managers and no way to correct their behavior. I do recommend working here ONLY IF you are confident that your manager has a good track record and that you are positive you want to work for them. Do not overlook this for the sake of working at Twitter.

      Best job I've had in ten years of tech

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Smart, dedicated coworkers. Highly collaborative environment that I enjoy coming to each day. Hours are reasonable, pay is very competitive, benefits are incredible, and managers are competent and thoroughly trained to manage people—no micromanaging, credit takers, or fail-up leaders in my group. I'm very happy here after a year.

      Cons

      The worst part of working at Twitter is the reputation we currently have, and combating the negative news and gossip.

      Best place I have ever worked and probably ever will work!

      Pros

      Twitter is an open, collaborative, innovative culture of smart people doing impactful things. Our products impact hundreds of millions of people around the world, and it is a really excellent place to work.

      Cons

      I honestly cannot think of any cons to working at Twitter. I am just writing this to fill the 20 word minimum that Glassdoor requires of all reviews, but Twitter is honestly a great place to work.
