Business outlook
Pros
I'm seeing Etsy's culture change to focus on results, accountability and actionable feedback. We are seeing some of the best business results and delivering features at the fastest pace in the last 2 years. While the old Etsy culture was about being nice and avoiding confrontation, it was slowly killing the business from the inside.
Cons
There are still a lot of people here having trouble adjusting to the culture shift, and thus are leaving the company and writing poor reviews on Glassdoor. Unfortunately, we are losing a good amount of domain knowledge with the attrition. However, I'm optimistic we are keeping our best performers and people are willing to work hard to make the company grow.
