Pros: I was employed at the end of another large, household-name scale-up, and there are some parallels for sure. These are definitely exciting times. For me, this is an exciting time as the flexibility to learn and be part of shaping things is still there to be had. There is a real feeling of focus and strategy to help point you in the right direction. Onboarding, from the interview through to the actual start of employment, is probably the best I have ever had. Checkout is setting you up to succeed, and they want you to. It will be mutually beneficial. The people I have encountered at the company so far are brimming with excitement, helpfulness, and knowledge. Also, due to various circumstances, I have had to move my start date multiple times, and this has always been dealt with without any concern or seeming like it was an issue.

Cons: No cons as of yet. I am sure there will be some; nothing is perfect, but for now, I feel all of the advantages will outweigh any cons.

Pros: Better than 2 years ago with management adjustments. In a good position. Feeling pretty valued as an employee.

Cons: Work is not always interesting; some coasting.

Pros: Free lunches and snacks in the office, good tech stack.

Cons: Too many changes in management, and contributions are not recognized or are overlooked. Within teams, silos are created, which do not encourage collaboration and knowledge is lost to one person.
