Pros

I’m only giving 2 stars because Dara seems great.

Cons

Many parts of the company lack stable leadership — going back to the TK years. Most of upper and middle management is completely incompetent and unqualified. Job descriptions are often vague, unclear, and overlapping. There is a ton of overlap between teams and departments that slows the organization down, creates unclear decision-making, and ultimately leads to re-work. Given the poor management, this has not been fixed in a while.

Pros

I love being able to work around truly passionate people who are ready to change the world. The culture is great, free snacks and food is big plus. I had the opportunity to take ownership of projects within my first month

Cons

The hours are much longer than any other job I've worked in, but this is expected to change as we continue hiring more help
