Pros: Seemingly above-average pay and benefits

Cons: I went through the interview process with this company and pulled out before the onsite stage. Everybody I met from this company gives me the creeps. First one was the recruiter, who was rude on the phone and kept pressing about my salary expectations even after I said I'd like to meet the team first. It was very unprofessional and honestly strange. I've never had a company do this to me, and then I talked to the hiring manager. This guy seemed entirely obsessed with velocity and doesn't know anything else. I asked him about their eng design process before impl. He said they don't do design anymore and just use ChatGPT to code an "MVP" and that's their design? What does that even mean? Then he was visibly STUNNED and paused for a good 10s when I asked what he considered important when it comes to talent retention. You can tell he's never thought about that before. Terrible, terrible leadership, full of red flags. I pulled out immediately after that. This company's culture seems extremely toxic and dysfunctional. Would absolutely avoid.

Pros: - The benefits surrounding mental health - I have been blessed with managers who treat me as a person and not just another number - Mentorship readily available - Collaborative environment - I feel heard - Unlimited PTO that is actually encouraged to take time and not feel guilty for it - Remote - Not forced to have video on during zoom calls - Definitely able to have a decent work/life balance - Time off between Christmas and the new year

Cons: - The core hours are too California-centric for a global company, and there should be more flexibility.

Pros: - The work is incredibly impactful. Hearing stories from our users about how we helped them with crash detection is very rewarding, and you can't get that at very many other places. - Strong recent leadership hires. With top-brass CTO, Mobile and Back-end leadership, I have been finding no shortage of mentorship opportunities. And this is building trust with leadership that we are going to a more diverse, effective team. - Massive scale and interesting tech. Our servers handle something like 6.1 billion API requests every day, and we have best-in-class location and driving technology on iOS and Android platforms.

Cons: - As others have mentioned, recent company indecisiveness is real. The vision is strong (Facebook for Families), strategy is sound, but in the last few months there have been a lot of direction shifts. This can wear on the team. That said, we are moving in the right direction and things are starting to feel more stable. - Cramped office space. Every employee gets a sit-stand desk which is great, but with all the recent hiring we are starting to feel congested.
