Pros

The people (some of them) make going to work tolerable. You can make the best of what you got with very little resources. You learn how to have thick skin in this place.

Cons

I don't know if there is enough space, but how convenient that they have a "featured" review from October at the top. Listen, just honestly don't do it to yourself. I joined when it was "Euro-Pro" and interrogating my recruiter based on the horrible Glass Door reviews. She done such a good job and convinced me so much, I actually joined. 6 months later, the one who recruited me - left! What does that say? This place is laughable at the very least. Processes are broken, everyone runs around doing either redundant work, or solving fire drills. This place loves meetings, you will minimally sit in 4 meetings a day (I used to love when I had less than five). You are CC'd for literally everything and strategy changes about 60 times before MP. They keep saying SN is going through "growing pains" and it's still a "start-up" feel but seriously at 1.5$ Bill/year, you'd think it would be a little more relieving than what a typical day to day looks like now. People say the pay is good but when you're working 60 hours a week minimum - is it worth it? I have literally seen people go to hospitals because of the amount of stress and anxiety here. Leadership is an absolute joke, egos are so big but no real work is being done! Honestly really, save yourself, and don't join. Until this company realizes that it's starts from the top, it's not going to change. There is some great talent here but a lot of cooks fighting for that one second of limelight. There are too many "breakthroughs" and "hacks" going around - and yet you still have to do your day job. The company is not growing as much as they used to.

Pros

Impactful work from Day 1 and a great learning experience

Cons

If you are not in the headquarter office, you may miss out on some networking opportunities but the early talent team do their best in providing as many opportunities as possible.

Pros

Some good peers that make the days slightly bearable with the group chat of how ridiculous and hellish the place is

Cons

The speed and agility are just code names for ceo paranoia and inability to make and stick to decisions. Toxic environment perpetuated by the lifers. Entire departments are pit against each other. A culture of public shaming and blaming with a side of discrimination and misogyny. It is absolute chaos and makes you regress professionally because after a while all you do is “yes” the ceo and do things the Shark way which is essentially the Mark way and 0% what other orgs would do or what you learned about/experienced previously. Micromanaging starts from the very top. Product issues daily. People cry daily. Ridiculously high turnover. So much bullying and favoritism. Extremely top heavy and lots of VPs+ to attend meetings but not enough people to actually work. Those in leadership are also unprofessional and liabilities. No work life balance. No respect. Backstabby. Even the meeting are aggressive and called hacks, red teams, sledge hammer approach etc. The best way to be successful here is to be a super caffeinated visible sycophant that is fine with no life outside of work. People note the high comp but it’s not worth it and is not enough compared to the hours actually worked and all the stress and anxiety that comes with it. The moral and mental health here are the lowest I’ve ever seen.
