Pros

- Beautiful product - Inspiring community that uses the product - One of the rare offices located in the city

Cons

- CEO tends to promote friends only (look at who is at the top - they are generally friends or early employees that became friends) - Virtually no women at the top or second level. The company keeps issuing press releases to try and mask this. - Unclear expectations for success in role - are you rated on how well you achieve metrics or who you're friends with? - Very bro-y culture. If you're not part of the bros, you really don't matter.

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
