Pros

IC level folks are smart, dedicated, and driven.

The company is in a stage of growth.

Lots to do means lots of opportunities to define what's next.

Fully remote is nice.

Cons
  • 10% unregretted attrition goal means very high turnover.
  • Incompetent middle management is resistant to feedback and unable to clarify expectations.
  • Goals shift constantly for both projects and individuals.
  • It's crunch time all the time.
  • Engineering performance is measured by PR count and how many late nights they put in.
