Pros: Benefits, Pay, DEI, Good product.

Cons: Hypergrowth is creating pain and instability in culture. High turnover right now.

Pros: - Great perks - Well-known product - Ability to work on challenging problems - Tope's story of starting Calendly is inspirational

Cons: - Promotion is painfully slow, with the process changing every two years—often for the worse. - Employees were once told that failing to get promoted within two years means they are underperforming. - Nearly all engineering leaders who built Calendly’s foundation have recently left. - New engineering leadership appears out of their depth and is quietly replacing existing talent with their own hires. - The company rewards loud voices, not real contributors. - Consistent actions damage morale, including layoffs, public blame-shifting, and dismissive comments. - Leadership announced an expensive new SF office during layoffs—then expressed “disappointment” at the employee backlash. - Leadership repeatedly greenlights projects only to block their deployment, pivoting at the last minute. Let your teams do their jobs.

Pros: Cost of living raises, $1000 travel benefit.

Cons: Inept management, poor communication as a rule. Management seems to go out of their way to prevent collaboration and teamwork. Not open to new ideas, with no accountability from management.
