Great company for SDE seeking growth and value

Software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

A strong sense of voice and the leadership give engineers high level of responsibility. The technology stack is consistently reevaluated to ensure it is the best standards. A Strong culture that supports family and work relationships. The engineering team is still small enough to feel the impact of your individual contributions, but the company is large enough for those contributions to bring in a lot of value.

Cons

Growing pains; team has been refactored 3x in 2 years. Always to our advantage, but it still is never easy.

Pros

- career growth and learning for those that are driven - hard problems to work on - new user facing features and products as well as foundational platform work - free food (at least in Seattle), free snacks, frequent free swag - regular hackathons that for some projects into an actual thing

Cons

- need to keep track of your own work/life balance - good amount of technical debt across the company from the early days, however teams are actively rebuilding systems properly - as with all pre IPO companies, hard to know what equity is worth if/when we go public - No wfh, but some managers look the other way (good)

Not a good place for your career

Business Outlook

Pros

1. Office is relatively nice and there are snacks, 3 meals catered a week 2. You can learn a lot of things here since you will have a lot of chances to build a product from scratch and be responsible for every aspect of it 3. Work life balance varies from team to team

Cons

1. They want to be next google, but it is actually a sales-driven company. All they care is about making profit instead of doing thing the right way and infra is crappy. 2. Employee compensation is below the industry average 3. Cross team communication is difficult and documentation is POOR. 4. Management doesn't actually value your opinion and interest. 5. RSUs are negligible if you join now
