Pros

There are some truly amazing folks that work at Sequoia. They work really hard and many truly care about the work they are doing. Even when things get out of hand, the teams band together to help each other through whatever new debacle comes their way. And there is always a new debacle. Pay is higher than most…

Cons

Layoffs at random with no warning and little to no communication to those directly affected by it. If you’re a manager or above, you’ve received middle of the night unhinged emails that make for an anxiety inducing day/week/month ahead. In 6 years I had 8 managers for 3 roles (2 were within the same team)…If a manager tries to reign in crazy expectations or pivots so they don’t derail an entire team, they tend to disappear. Pay is higher than most but not enough for what is expected emotionally and physically.
