Pros: There are great benefits, coworkers, and location.

Cons: High turnover rate because Amplitude lacks leadership that has empathy. Unfortunately, many managers are hired because of knowing someone and they are hired without solid experience for the role. I had to teach my manager, how to manage me.

Pros: They are good people to work with.

Cons: Unsure about direction of the products

Pros: Good work/life balance, great funding/runway/security, high bar for engineering employee quality.

Cons: Strategy seems to be decided by people with no experience in trying to build what they want Amplitude to become. Too few people with domain knowledge make too many big decisions. There are very few people with the actual background and knowledge to build something that will provide focused value. The founders and executives don't have the DNA to make what they think they are making. It's a lack of culture. Everything feels really disconnected, which makes it hard to focus long-term and invest yourself. Also, did you even think about how cringeworthy a lecture about racism was coming from white employees?
