Best workplace i have worked till now
- Leadership team is technical
- Compensation is on par with market
- Product is getting better every day, which gives motivation to the entire organization
- No restrictions on opensource adoption and contribution (as long as it does not involve core products)
- Ability to take risk (in terms of new technology, tools, stacks, people etc) and iterate quickly and learn from failure. And internalizing the same as a company culture, it's just awesome
- Attitude to embrace remote working, this is crucial if you have family and you stay outside SF (somedays commute is just horrible, due to games, road closures, public commute issues etc)
- Rapidly growing mid-management layer, which creates silos and information loss between hops.
- Being in SF, it's becoming increasingly difficult to commute.
- Don't swell the mid-management layer so much that you can't get feedback from people who are working at the front line, or at least setup skip level meetings
- Split teams if they are larger than 5-7. Every technical team deserve a tech lead, just like senior management requires mid-management for better communications. Managers are not tech-lead,

Software Engineer
