Great place, but constant chaos
Great place, but constant chaos
You get to work with great, talented people. Really nice perks. Digital by design. Clear mission that is easy to empathize with (I loved our merchants).
Changes are constant and come out of nowhere. You could be close to completing a project when suddenly it gets canceled or needs to be redone on a new stack.
Young (a bit inexperienced) senior leadership with what felt like little empathy for the regular employees.
-
It's nice to be the rebels, but structure and software development practices can't hurt.
-
It is nice you have so much empathy for merchants, but you can also apply it to the workforce.
