Pros

High salary. High-value stocks. Two pizza-size teams. Easy coding interviews (good and bad).

Cons

Easy coding interviews (good and bad).

Prioritize deliveries versus having reliable/good designs from the beginning.

During COVID time, they do not care if employees work extended hours.

Advice to Management
  • Check the stress levels and working hours from employees not only one level below you.
  • Ask for skip-level 1-on-1s with employees to see how management is doing.
