Twitch

There are still great people on some teams, but you have to find them, and team experience varies a lot (true for most companies).

Compensation is okay. Work/life balance is great.

The office is incredible.

Twitch has committed and passionate users, which can make you feel good about launching features for them.

• Not much alignment on any common goals, and it's hard to work with other teams. Teams re-implement features that already exist just so they can do it themselves.

• Management is mainly a mix of career Amazon people and hopelessly inexperienced new hires trying to stay afloat.

• Zero high-level engineering direction. Internal dev tooling is terrible compared to similar-sized companies.

• Zero diversity. 3 women on a team of 60.
