Avantages

* Opportunity to work in an all remote setting on a popular developer focused product

Inconvénients

* During my time there, I noticed a shift away being Product/Eng focused company to a Sales driven one. As a result, product and engineering have become a support function to Sales. The product culture has declined under the current CPO. * Limited opportunities for career growth and to work on new projects * Inexperienced middle management (Group and Director levels) results in rampant micromanagement and overemphasis on specific ways of working (that are non-industry standard) over results * While Diversity is one of their values, 'diversity of thought' is discouraged. For example, management is not receptive to ideas that employees may have from previous work experience and instead doubles down on processes that don't work

Best company I've ever worked for. Strong culture, great leadership, competitive compensation, excellent work life balance, and a genuine focus on employee well being and career growth.

Inconvénients

Fast paced environment and high expectations, but that's part of working at a successful, growing company.

Avantages

OK pay or benefits in the market. Fully remote. Still is trying to frame itself as a big player.

Inconvénients

Leadership went from being collaborative, communicative, and transparent, to being mercurial, secretive, and out of touch with the actual work. OBSESSSES over your AI usage metrics - even if AI doesn't help you and slows you down. The current layoff in progress was communicated poorly and not planned at all. And now they want us to adore the leaders and the company? Cultish vibes. We went from a company that plans ahead to a company that reacts.
