Pros

The most capable, friendly, and sane group of people I've ever worked with. Constantly impressed with the quick intelligence, maturity, capability, and authenticity of my coworkers across all teams. Firmly rooted in a simple set of values. Somewhat conservative but savvy leadership. Some huge successes coming out of company-wide initiatives focusing on improvements to the basics, the likes of which I've only seen work here and attribute to the discipline in leadership. Ben and Evan have great instincts and are not in it for their personal glory - a rarity in SF and it shines through immediately and trickles down through the whole company. Product is massive, loved, and thankfully somewhat overlooked by the tech scene. Very little "noise" and not a magnet for climbers. Growth and progress have been brisk and steady the 3 years I've been here.

Cons

Still finding our way strategically and continually feel stretched to try out everything we'd like to. Things can feel slow moving at times, although I believe they feel that way due to previous experience in manic environments where direction changes constantly.

Pros

WLB Remote work (which is slowly ending). Strong ICs

Cons

Poor leadership vision, strategy, and execution. Rebranding products that already exist as net new to chase a headline. Unclear career growth unless you are internally connected to “the right people”. Middle management that is there to boost their career / repackage IC ideas as their own with zero credit. RTO rollout was botched leading to senior sellers leaving. Lots of toxic positivity and virtue signaling
