Pros

I used to rave about this company because I thought everybody was so nice that worked there and it was really in line with one of their values which is kindness.

Cons

After laying off 2,000 people, myself being one of them back in September 2022, 6 months later they repost my job again with a different title. I got nothing but positive reviews during my time there in my performance evaluations and even was up for a promotion to a post occupancy project manager position before getting laid off. Why would they post this new job without reaching out to me to at least let me know they were going to do that? I thought these people had become friends and I respected them. I am highly disappointed and this is not at all in line with the kind value.

Pros

- Great base comp - Unlimited PTO - Good food at offices

Cons

- Leadership is incompetent. This company will die and when it does, it will be no one's fault other than Evan. - If you disagree with leadership and speak up, you will be punished. All SMC VPs hired each other from past companies. They are all corporate ladder climbers from Meta with no morals. - Being a leader at Snap means leading through fear and regularly throwing tantrums in conference rooms. - The ads business is a joke. No matter how many ex-[insert big tech name] engineers work on the product, you can't monetize an audience of 13 year olds or people who's sole use case for this app is inappropriate. - There is truly nothing redeeming about this business, B2C or B2B. It's all smoke and mirrors. I've never seen the population of monetizable users grow, it's only gone down since I've joined. To offset this we acquire the cheapest users possible to appease investors who see straight through this BS.
