Pros

Amazing work culture, challenging but fun. Talented coworkers to work with and learn from. Industry-leading product with a fun tech stack. Company cares about its employees and organizes lots of events like movie nights and pub crawls. Compensation is very competitive with the industry.

Cons

Lacks some of the perks of other tech companies, such as free food (though there is free lunch on Mondays and breakfast on Fridays).

Weird 401K system.

Organizations can be siloed, making it difficult to gain visibility into what's happening around the company.

Advice to Management
  • Improve the 401K plan because planning for retirement is important and should not be dependent on company performance.

  • Increase visibility and transparency into each org to increase interorg communication and decrease siloing.
