It's kind of an actual dream job
It's kind of an actual dream job
- You work for a company everyone has heard of. I can't understate how cool this is.
- The perks are great; I really feel respected and taken care of.
- Some of the smartest and nicest people I've ever worked with.
- Unbelievably transparent. We have public forums to ask the CEO and senior staff whatever we want around twice a month, and they really do answer honestly.
- The company seems very ethical, with lots of focus on its core mission and giving back to the community.
Things are a bit disorganized. My manager has like 30 other direct reports because the management structure just isn't fleshed out yet.
Work on splitting up teams into smaller, more focused units with a clearer chain of command. I love how flat the management structure is, but we need more than one or two key lynchpins in the engineering management.
