Pros

The perks are great, but they aren't the reason you want to work at Twitch. The career opportunities here are incredible. For the massive scale at which we operate, we're still a relatively small company, and as such the ratio of employee to customer impact is extremely high. Everything you do feels like it matters and has a direct impact on the business.

I've never had a day where I didn't want to come in to work. I get to build a great product that I love using, with intelligent and fun coworkers, and in a very encouraging environment.

Cons

No company is perfect, and Twitch is no exception. While I believe the pros far outweigh the cons, the larger we get, the more challenges we will face.

There is currently some confusion with the new organizational structure, but I'm confident that we'll adjust and get it right.

Advice to Management

The rapid growth phase that we're currently in may be the most challenging period we will ever face. Make sure that we continue to hire the right people that we'll want to still be working with five years from now.
