WFH option. A few cash benefits. Some decent people.

Cons

Pure corporate trap *Extremely toxic * The numbers and the upper management are the only priority * No bonus * Massively understaffed * Hugely political * Micromanagement at its finest * No transparency * No work life balance * No clear communication and a lot of confusion at the upper management * HR exists for the sole purpose of supporting the management * Everyone is trying so much to fake it it's pathetic *

Pros

The people in general are amazing- smart, hard working, helpful, funny. Great communities in Slack and engaging events with creativity and camaraderie. Great remote-first environment and some decent benefits. The product drives inspiration and joy and it's useful in a plethora of ways. Longtime Pinner personally, and I loved how people would light up when I said where I worked.

Cons

The CEO and executive leadership team are sinking the product into oblivion. The app is completely overrun with ads now, making it an awful user experience. Leadership doesn't listen to employees when we've brought up major user pain points, and makes terrible financial decisions, focusing more on publicity than the actual product. The toxicity is trickling down. It's not the same company it once was and they've kicked out or scared off some of the most dedicated and passionate employees. It's genuinely sad to watch something so wonderful tank so hard.
