Pros

Your immediate peers are smart and hard working. The problems are interesting and there is opportunity to grow in your career for junior hires.

Cons

Too many processes, politics and top down directives. The roadmap changes weekly with unrealistic deadlines for a product that requires a lot of overhead to change. The RTO mandate is being rolled out with no care or trust for employees and it is killing the culture.

We believe that in-person collaboration, connection, and speed of execution are foundational to our culture and success. While we have always offered some flexibility, we are an in-person workplace first. We appreciate the feedback and we're actively working to improve how we prioritize and communicate across teams, and we wish you the best in your next chapter.
