Pros
- Onboarding process is the best I have ever had - The experimentation framework is decent - Some strong engineers and data scientists - Compensation and benefits are great, though RSUs are not promising
Cons
- Pink flavor of toxic Uber - obvious because a lot of folks here are ex-Uber. - Company will never be profitable - Engineers & PMs here are arrogant, toxic and political. They browbeat each other, torpedo each other's work, gossip, yell, falsely blame each other etc. This is the only company I have worked where the politics exists at the engineer/PM-level. Because the management is desperate to retain talent, if you are smart & arrogant you will be shielded at the expense of other employees. - The arrogance of the engineers does not match their talent level. Merely clever engineers, but lacking in maturity, experience and intellectual humility. If they worked at a place like Google, they will be humbled in a day. - My PM was a plagiarist and dating another PM in the same team, leading to all kinds of weird interactions but HR and upper management would not fix it. - Token DEI hires who do not meet the bar.
