Pros

There are a lot of smart people working there, which makes for an interesting experience no matter the role. Product-driven company with a product that’s actually good.

Cons

Product-driven company so as an engineer this means you’re working at a feature factory. You’ll have little agency no matter how senior you are. Bang out a ton of tickets and the people who matter will love you for it, never mind if you leave a wake of steaming technical debt for your teammates to deal with. Enjoy pager duty!

Pros

pay, remote, some good/smart people in pockets

Cons

Senior leaders could not care less about employees and routinely make bad market decisions leading to foreseeable product issues and eventual layoff cycles. There was a time a few years back where employees criticized the dark patterns in the app - the president got pissed and said 'the data didn't show it was an issue', then a few months later when we got bad press about those patterns dismissed it as our competitors planting stories - sums up the culture pretty clearly.
