Stripe is not for the fainthearted
Stripe is not for the fainthearted
It is a dynamic company full of intelligent and ambitious people. Most Stripe people are helpful and collaborative.
It is still suffering growing pains, despite not being a start up anymore. Among them are a lack of operational consistency, a lack of investment in the future of their employees, and the growing impact of politics in decision making. They prefer to hire boomerangs rather than give employees the opportunity to grow internally and build a good career.
Do not be afraid to make decisions and lead with conviction.
