Pros

Good work-life balance, and the company generally does a good job at not hiring jerks.

Cons

A designer-driven company with an aversion to any kind of data-driven design, or even collecting data on user behavior.

As an engineer, expect to be treated like a fungible cog, unless your manager really has your back and knows how to use political subterfuge to keep you safe.

Advice to Management

Try trusting the engineers and data scientists you hire, so you can make informed decisions.

It's hard to make a good product based only on intuition.
