Exciting challenges, great people, fast pace, strong business

SVP Engineering • Current Employee

San Francisco, California, United States

Pros: Fast growth, strong product-market fit, and a large market present many interesting problems to solve. An ambitious culture pushes you to solve the hard problems first. A fast-paced environment favors quick decision-making, iterative execution, and strong agency. People are experts in their areas, execute with strong ownership, and carry their weight. A collaborative culture is based on constructive debate and first-principles thinking.

Cons: Operates a lot like a much earlier-stage company, requiring everyone to be OK with a fair amount of ambiguity and change.
