Pros: - Our engineers and engineering leaders are tremendously smart and capable. We have a relatively small engineering org considering our scale, and we still manage to ship market-leading features. I learn from my colleagues every day. - Our approach to engineering management is thoughtful and yields excellent results. Teams are small enough that engineers can have a relationship with their manager, and big enough to facilitate autonomy. - The company is big enough to have opportunities for huge impact, small enough that a single determined person can deliver the impact, and set up to reward doing so. If this is exciting to you, you'll love Braze. - Within the engineering org, compensation is highly competitive.

Cons: - Sometimes we take the idea of being "self-organizing" and "bottom up" structure too far and end up failing to coordinate or lacking a cohesive vision. This is sometimes slow to be addressed by leadership. - Some challenges end up being addressed by committee, which makes progress against them glacial. - We have some technical growing pains as we emerge from our startup era and target our Fortune 500 era. I think this is expected and creates massive growth opportunities, but it is not always fun to deal with.

Pros: Everything about working for Braze is a 'pro'. I have been here for about 2.5 years at this point, and I have never worked for a better company. Everyone at Braze is incredibly intelligent, very nice and approachable. This is the first company I have worked at, where the founders are still involved as much as Bill and Jon are here (in a very good way). As part of the Braze Security Team, we are given an opportunity to secure systems used by billions of people a day and it really makes you feel like you're making a difference in securing so many people's information.

Cons: The only downside to working for Braze is that I am fully remote, so I don't get to do many of the in-office events. Everything else about working for Braze is amazing.

Pros: Great work culture, atmosphere focussed on results and learning. Collaborative and humble coworkers. The pay and benefits are good. There is a lot of remote work flexibility

Cons: At this time I cannot think of any cons.
