Pros: Decent salary and good work-life benefit.

Cons: Limited opportunity in career development.

Pros: Doing some of the best work of my career here. The company has a conspicuous lack of ego, and everyone is just really good at what they do and extremely kind. Lots of opportunity to build new things, be heavily involved in product decisions, and solve hard technical problems (all at once).

Cons: The company is growing really fast, which comes with some tensions that any growing company has, but it's still coping with them as well as any I’ve seen.

Pros: I've always loved tools and collaborating with designers, so Figma is kind of a product match made in heaven. For such a young product, it’s remarkably mature. The codebase is excellent, the release process is totally sane, and fires are almost nonexistent. People work hard but on a normal (and family-friendly) schedule. The engineering team is diverse in gender (currently 30% female), race, age, and experience. Projects are always impactful, and engineers work collaboratively on the product; it’s not a place where you simply implement a feature blindly.

Cons: It’s a startup, so priorities can shift. It’s exciting when you are on board with them and are okay with change, but it can be hard if you are uncomfortable with instability. Founders are young, but I've been impressed with their mature approach and resourcefulness.
