Pros

Exciting work, always new and engaging challenges to build for. The product-first approach has built a strong engineering culture that rewards learning and building with velocity.

Cons

Building with velocity can sometimes bleed into work life balance.

Pros

The technology work itself was interesting and I learned things. The product idea has actual potential.

Cons

• A clear inner circle existed and I was never part of it. • Decisions felt predetermined and fair opportunities were scarce. • Meetings often left me feeling ignored and shut out. • Real collaboration happened in spaces I was excluded from. • Constantly felt like an outsider looking in.
