Pros

- Some employees who worked there were mission-driven. Many of those employees are since gone

Cons

- No vision or strategy from inexperienced and overly inflated "executives" - Reactive leadership following the whims of the CEO with no backing and often research against his idea from UX or analytics - Team that is forced to implement bad idea gets blamed for its failure - no setups for success and goal posts that constantly move based on what leadership feels at the moment - Poor treatment of people with sexist attitudes - Company looks like it was going down before the pandemic, but this has expedited its downfall - Rampant politicking and profiling of employees - Recently more than 20% of the company was laid off, many of them women and African Americans

Pros

Benefits are 4/5! Just the standard in tech but not exceptional. Great and talented people working mid-level and entry-level roles at the company.

Cons

Top leaders tend to be highly political and biased. The organizational structure is strongly rooted in connections and often feels like a family business, if you’re not “family,” you’re disposable. Promotions are slow, and there is a lack of transparency around career growth, which has led to the loss of strong talent. !! Customers do not come first.
