People are extremely passionate about their work, which creates a culture of high expectations for quality and output, as well as growth-oriented feedback to achieve those goals. While the company is fast-paced, everyone is supportive and collaborative, which makes it feel like a team working towards one goal. I have a stellar manager who gives me thoughtful guidance and also proactively helps me find opportunities for growth.

Engineers (ICs) are given a lot of trust and responsibility at the company, not only in terms of technical work but also involvement in sales meetings, product management, and design.

There's a strong in-office culture. There are a ton of activity-oriented clubs that meet after work, such as basketball, swimming, or reading. People enjoy each other's company and enjoy coming into the office.

The senior management at the company hold themselves to a high standard and care strongly about employee happiness. In my experience, they are willing to listen and do take feedback seriously. The company has certainly faced growing pains, but people care enough to continually try to make improvements. Individuals at the company are also encouraged and empowered to push for change.

Work can be intense, especially as you gain additional responsibility at the company. Work-life balance is possible, but you need to be clear with setting your boundaries. You may not be able to be competitive with others who are able to devote more of their time to work.
