Pros: - Good pay. - Interesting engineering problems to tackle.

Cons: Shift from supportive management to a micromanagement approach focused on fear of poor performance reviews. Engineers are treated like children, with constant monitoring of their work to ensure they are meeting expectations. Performance is now measured by arbitrary metrics like Merge Request numbers, commit counts, and comments, rather than actual contributions. Employees are afraid to speak up for fear of being fired, with an apparent goal to have a certain percentage of performance-related attritions. Surveys are being selectively shared, with management only disclosing portions that align with their perspective. The shift to impact reviews discourages teamwork and forces only doing "impactful" work, leading to tech debt, hacks, and quick fixes that make systems unmaintainable. Upper management imposes rigid “talent practices” without considering employee input, creating a toxic environment. ICs are held to strict accountability standards, while upper management isn't.

Pros: Great company to work for, generally.

Cons: Small company, but still growing.

Pros: Awesome, smart, no-ego, collaborative people. Great product with a lot of room for improvement – which is good, you have to wear lots of hats. If you want a place that challenges you, Zapier is for you. Forget about the comfort zone! Awesome work/life balance.

Cons: Remote work is not for everybody. You have to be super communicative.
