Pros

The "Day 1" atmosphere remains. Lots of smart people doing lots of smart things at top speed. Great team support, pay, and benefits. Work-life balance is recognized and supported. As an L6, I feel empowered to make my own decisions and act on them. You have lots of flexibility here to grow in whatever way you want.

Cons

Everything moves so fast that it's a bit like the wild west. I sometimes fear the "Day 1" mentality is used as an excuse for the chaotic virtual environment and lack of standardization of internal tools and processes. If you can handle that, it's a great place to work.

Pros

- Strong place to be early in your career as it provides valuable training and the brand recognition can create strong future opportunities. - Is great if you’re interested in what you’re doing/selling

Cons

- 5 days in office is not great for work/life balance - If your manager doesn’t like you, good luck! - 401k match is lower than most companies - Base salary compensation is weak compared to other big tech - Leveling/career progression is near impossible due to reorgs leading to a promotion “freeze” - Role can evolve over time in ways that may not align with original job expectations
