Pros: - Emphasizes learning and growth, and supports engineers in making it happen. - Blameless culture, from incident postmortems and beyond - the focus is on learning and preventing future problems, rather than pinning blame. - Organizational willingness to take calculated risks with new technology, whether it's infrastructure tech, programming languages, or libraries. - Engineering strives to appropriately balance moving quickly against technical risk. - Smart engineers who get things done. - No jerks allowed - being candid yet empathetic is a core value here. - DevOps culture - you build it, you deploy it and run it in production.

Cons: - Some services, libraries, and tools are legacy, and balancing paying down this tech debt with new feature work can be a challenge. - Focus shifted from engineering excellence to product/feature work to (occasionally) too great an extent. This seems to be shifting back somewhat, so hopefully a happy, sustainable middle ground is settled upon.

Pros: Nice work/life balance and great culture. I have been impressed with the way this company handled the pandemic - they added an "Employee health day" off every month as well as extra sick days. They offered a stipend to purchase work from home equipment and another monthly stipend to cover internet bills. The work is challenging and the people are pretty great.

Cons: Re-orgs happen much too frequently and lead to confusion and loss of direction/purpose. The people responsible for re-orgs are likely being rewarded for the company's success for "shaking things up", but they don't seem to be held responsible for the attrition that they cause.

Pros: Food, snacks, relaxed atmosphere, friendly people, culture of learning, priorities on people, can work from home, hours are long but flexible

Cons: Growing quickly so there's a lot of change, work is intense but rewarding
