Twitch

The people working here are incredibly smart, kind, and will gladly help you work through any blockers you have.

The Twitch office is cool!

The food is good and the chefs are incredibly kind and humble.

The work you do has impact on a culturally-relevant product.

Leadership does not have a well-defined vision. They veer off course incredibly quickly and are scared to make decisions, forcing managers and engineering teams to crunch in order to get the requirements done. There are lots of Hail Mary investments into products that don't even have significant customer adoption.

Growth is extremely team-dependent. High-impact work and learning new tools are dependent on your manager. Promotions are impossible if your manager does not like you.

There is lots of burnout across many orgs due to culture diminishing over the years. Two massive layoffs that cut more than half the company at this point destroyed team morale since explosive COVID hiring sprees.
