      Pros

      Some of the smartest engineers in the valley at this company. Many have backgrounds at the larger name brand companies, Amazon, Facebook, Google, etc. Almost of the C suite people are already extremely well accomplished; you can check the company website to see their bios. This gave me a lot of confidence in the company when I joined and that confidence has only grown since I've been here. This company is going all the way to IPO, I can feel the energy and am on the ground level witnessing all of the incredible stuff we are building. Very excited for the future of this company. Perks are quite good- free lunch and dinner and a bunch of great snacks.

      Cons

      Diversity is a big pain point- the majority of the engineering team is Indian male. Considering I fall into this category, it doesn't affect me as much but I can see how it would be slightly off for people with different backgrounds. However, I don't envision that people would treat others with different backgrounds differently. People at the company have been very accepting and nice.

      Thanks for your feedback. We are tackling diversity and inclusion on a few different fronts-- both in recruiting and in supporting our underrepresented minority team members who already part of our community. Hope you will help us in these efforts!

      Hearing this from someone in Finance, where the work is demanding and the margin for error is small, genuinely means a lot. The fact that you're experiencing the culture as values-driven and not just values-stated is exactly what we're working hard to build. The pace is real and so is the opportunity, and we're glad that combination is landing as energizing rather than exhausting. Thanks for taking the time to share this.

      Pros

      - good team members and peers in mid-senior management - flexible time off (sort of) - amazing product - great tools for building with AI

      Cons

      - burnout culture: "intensity" is a core value that plays out as burning people out, We've lost some good people over this. - when execs ask for feedback, and people are honest, they gaslight the folks giving feedback to minimize and dismiss the issues raised. - the week between Christmas and New Year's used to be company wide time off. Now it has to be approved by management. There were clearly some executives who wanted this to happen because they couldn't stand giving the whole team time off at once. See burnout comment above. - impulsive and reactive CEO. Fire drills every week that derail current projects. Downstream, we get harpooned by our direct C-level for not meeting deadlines. Other items have to be deprioritized in order to accommodate his urgent requests; there's no way around this.
