Pros

- Tutorials and documentations for almost every tool you need in a daily basis, as well as training and onboardings courses to get familiar with the company - Amazing teamwork, my colleagues are very nice and teams do their best with async communication to align cross initiatives - 18 PTO days + 12 public holidays - Flexibility for work-life balance - Work from anywhere

Cons

Most part of the time developers may get tickets without context, then they need to talk to the person who registered the issue. I think it's less efficient when people want time optimization, mainly as a manager/lead.

Pros

- Fully remote - Mostly nice and talented people, you can learn a bunch and the atmosphere is good in the beginning - Once you realize you're not ever getting a raise you can get by doing bare minimum - You can write the ceo on slack and he will respond, which is actually insane considering its such a huge company

Cons

- Everyone is underpaid, even the senior directors. They present employee equity as extra compensation, but make it very difficult to sell shares at secondaries. - Raise/promotion policies are set up in a way where most ppl will never get it. I've seen superstar employees get 2% annual raise. The rest got 1%. - Pay is localized, so you can do the same exact job but get pay half of the compensation if you're not based in the US. - It's either employee contract for less money, and you have some employee rights given to you by your country, or more money but you're getting misclassified on a b2b contract and using vaction days when you get sick. The actual work requirements and responsibilities are the same in both cases. - If you're not drinking the koolaid you better fall in line and keep any opinions challenging the status quo to yourself - Manager can get pretty manipulative, they'll say anything to appease you, but will not act in your interest unless it aligns with their internal politics play
