Pros

Was a great place to work with a lot of diversity, snacks, good product and CTO Team.

Cons

Company had major layoffs and turnover that affected product roadmap. New CEO restructured after I left, removing some of the most creative on the engineering team. People are fired seemingly overnight. There is a sense from existing employees that new management is arrogant, untruthful, and poorly managing the company. Company size is shrinking drastically and Sales doesn't seem to be performing at all and seems to have no traction in the market.

Pros

* 100% remote without any office, so zero risk of getting pushed back to the San Francisco office * We get to operate with a high level of autonomy in how we get work done * Joy events are twice a month and they are pretty fun * People are nice to each other * Managers meet with each team member at least once a week * Learning and development is ongoing and revisited each six months * The executive team and the CEO really care about the people * Overwhelmingly, you get the sense that people are earnest, adaptable, and helpful (no job is beneath anyone)

Cons

* No free lunches sent to your home each day (a surprisingly common Silicon Valley tech company perks); everyone is pretty budget-minded.
