Pros
  • Great on-boarding programs.
  • Hack days, time to work on whatever you'd like with a team or solo.
  • Upward/lateral mobility.
  • Good people.
  • React/Rails/GraphQL.
  • Reasonable pace.
  • Mission is clear.
Cons
  • Remote by default, at least for now.
  • Depends on your preference, but for me, the company is too large.
  • Complex products, new features, or changes need to be very considered. Hack days are a great counter to this, as you can build something with a single goal in mind very quickly.
Advice to Management

Re-work the communication around the remote-by-default policy so that people who prefer to work in the office feel they will have that option when it's safe.
