Pros: You can work with smart, passionate people everyday. You write software all day, with no pointless meetings and no nonsense. You deploy to production within the first week. It is a relaxed environment. There are lots of opportunity to learn and grow. It is just brilliant.

Cons: Sometimes there can be large workloads and pressure, but this is to be expected in any fast growing technology company.

Pros: They definitely care for their employees, are pretty flexible to helping you move in whatever direction you'd like with your career, and give a lot of autonomy for those who want to step up and take the reins.

Cons: A lot of zigs and zags in direction over the past few years that led to a lot of wasted engineering effort. Engineering org seems to favor a "bottom up" style of leadership where individual contributors just kinda pick a direction they want to go. To me that seems like an absence of strong leadership and planning and I think the products and the org have suffered because of it.

Pros: Great local team. It's where I group up the ranks and had the chance to work with a bunch of great people. Great manager and skip manager. Quite accomodating and led the team to several great projects. I worked on a latest tech stack.

Cons: Last 4 years has been painful to put it mildly. The scars of August 2023 RIF is still felt among teams, who are still understaffed and living under fear if they're next, with company's continuing underperformance. Add to that, the exodus of senior executives over the past year hasn't been morale endusing either. Still rooting for the company to suceed, but its feeling more like its going to either be merged or acquired if this trend holds for 1-2 more years.
