Pros
  • Pay is very competitive
  • Feels like company is on the cutting edge to stay profitable and competitive as a business
  • Reasonable work culture and supportive management. Even with the issues listed in cons, have had conversations w/ reporting chain about personal needs and values without retaliation.
Cons
  • Can be intense. Product teams expect long hours leading up to launches, and those who worked long hours are then praised for it. Many managers and leaders are obviously workaholics which sets a tone, even if they claim it's not expected of others.
  • Execs micro-manage projects they're interested in. Leads to high quality bar but a lot of last-minute rework, and lower autonomy for those teams.
