Pros

Smart colleagues. Product with huge impact. Lots of independence as an IC and as a team. Perks make life easier.

Cons

Very few good product people with good product intuition.

Company relies on metrics and user research far more than they should.

Everybody says they value long-term work but don’t have the courage to do it. Nobody has taste — and it’s reflected in the awful Frank Gehry buildings.

Advice to Management

Retain and empower people who have strong product intuition. Make it a core requirement for product managers.
