Pros

- Turo reinvests its profit back into its employees and customers. - The community here is so close. Even as I was onboarding remotely, many people from different teams reached out to get to know me and made sure that I felt welcome. - Turo is growing very quickly, and this means lots of opportunity. - Salary and stock options are competitive with other SF companies. - Not a lot of ego involved when working with other people.

Cons

- It's still a startup, so the codebase is not mature yet. However, this means that you as the engineer will have the opportunity to fix things that you think can be improved. - Seems like they'd prefer people to go back to the office when it starts opening up. If you prefer fully remote then this may be a downside for you.

Pros

Unfortunately, not many since the company has shifted priorities, post layoffs. Good work/life balance but depends on your role

Cons

Lack of employee development due to lack of bandwidth for leaders, new shift in performance management allows leaders to let employees go without development paths, there's a push to work harder and move faster creating a toxic work environment.
