Nice people, growing pains
Almost everyone I dealt with was super nice.
I felt good about what we were working on.
The company does a lot with a smaller eng team.
Hard to transfer internally due to size. Grew too fast during the pandemic, so some management and reorg has been hard. Just had layoffs to correct for that mistake.
Try to split the difference with culture and making sure the company succeeds and goes public.
The core culture is pretty special, which can attract unique talent. Make sure not to lose the talented engineers who are creative, nice weirdos, and passionate about their hobbies. Those are my people, and it's why I liked Discord.
