Pros

The work life balance is great. The pay is good. The culture internally is very positive. After the layoffs of ~60% of the employees, it's gone from a great place to work to still being okay.

Cons

Twitch is very unclear in its direction. Upper management is poor. You're able to accomplish much less after Twitch laid off 60% of the workforce. It's becoming more and more influenced by Amazon every year.
