      Pros

      First and foremost the team is not only one of the most talent dense that I have worked with, but easily the most collaborative and considerate ones. Everyone is there to learn, support each other, and provide knowledge where they can. You never feel alone. Secondly, the mission and company operating procedures are so easy to buy into and live and breathe each day that you collectively buy into the company and the future that exists for it. Finally, there are so many benefits to working here that extend past compensation in terms of professional growth, market knowledge, and specific industry exposure you wouldn't get anywhere else.

      Cons

      There really are no negative aspects about being part of the team. I would highlight that we move fast, have a bias for action, and give constant feedback. It's not for everyone, but if you value that in a position then this is the place to be.

      Pros

      Skilled engineers to work with, until you or they get laid off.

      Cons

      QA understaffed. Repeated layoffs across the organization. Accidentally fired one of their best technical directors based on inaccurate information. Claims to be engineering focused company, actually focused on brand identity and social media engagement. Ships MVP features and congratulate themselves on LinkedIn. Lay off the engineers that built the MVP product, with no thought towards technical debt, maintenance. Execs heavily emphasize buy-in to brand identity and personal investment in the company. They reward this by laying your whole team off after the MVP feature is delivered. Engineers are effectively contractors, without their knowledge. You were hired to deliver a specific feature, after that feature is done, you will be laid off. Company will claim layoffs are due to "macroeconomic" factors, but this is contradicted by their actions, with multiple rounds of layoffs before the looming recession, and making layoffs alongside announcements of new rounds of funding.

      Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. We're sorry to understand that you were dissatisfied with your experience with us. This feedback, while reflective of some understandable frustration with circumstances such as layoffs, is also lacking quite a bit of important context. Parts of it are wholly inaccurate. We'd be remiss not to note here how grateful we are for the contributions of our Engineering team, past and present. We have always considered our Engineers to be important and valued members of our team - Despite having to evolve and make some tough decisions along the way, this fact remains unwavering. We wish you the best in your future endeavors.
