RecommendsPositive OutlookNo Opinion of CEOI have been working at Square full-time for less than a year
Pros
They hit the ground running since my first day. Training was very intense and allowed me to learn the in's and out's of the product and company. Definitely no slacking around, I feel a common sense of everyone around me growing the business together. Seeing tons of hiring and competitive compensation. Benefits package is AWESOME.
Cons
None so far, everything's been great

Doesn't RecommendNeutral OutlookApproves of CEOI have been working at Square full-time for less than a year
Pros
- Jack is a solid dude - Good company values - Good benefits - Co-workers generally friendly and helpful
Cons
- On-boarding really, really sucks. - Nobody really knows anything, and people are just blindly following processes. - Write docs for days / weeks / months, no time actually spent writing code. - If you like technology and building things with code, you'll be stuck in a quagmire of documentation, reviews, complicated legacy code nobody dates touch, and robotic processes. - Nobody has figured out how to build team morale remotely, which is a problem given Square wants to become a fully remote company.

Pros
Great culture, amazing, incredible company to work for. It's easy to sell, everyone knows and loves Square. If you work hard and put in the time, easy to grow vertically!
Cons
Horizontal growth in the CA office is limited. Great if you want to progress within your function, but hard to move to other functions and learn things beyond just your role at a more senior level.
