Pros

Their central motto is "We help people get jobs." Every big meeting opens with that. It's very heart-warming and motivational. Almost everyone who wants can work remotely. If you do go into the office, there are free meals and snacks. In theory, there's unlimited PTO.

Cons

They did a huge lay off in March 2023. Then another in May 2024. Over that year, the company has become a miserable place to work. They've switched to a very top-down bureaucracy where clueless directors dictate product direction with no justification. Then they scramble the org structure so all the priorities change every few months. And they decide how ratings will be decided at the end of the quarter (or maybe every 6 months...that also keeps changing).
