Pros
Working at Etsy is incredible. There is nonstop momentum, and you work for a company that ultimately does good in the world. The BK HQ is lovely, the food and atmosphere is inspiring.
Cons
Managers aren't always held accountable for people management - more emphasis on project management.

Pros
Great compensation, generous RSU packages. Remote work. Amazing corporate culture and fun people to work with.
Cons
Hire & Fire company. I worked for Etsy for 1 year, 1 week and 1 day. My management changed and the new manager never liked me. I had a mostly ok review and then one day I found out I didn't work there any more.
Advice to Management
Give people opportunities to improve perceived deficiencies in their job performance instead of just ending their position.

Pros
Creative culture, friendly c-level executives, excellent benefits, beautiful office
Cons
People are made managers without any thought into whether they will manage well which often leads to poor communication and under supported teams.
I have watched many co-workers treat lower level staff with incredible disrespect and I have been shocked at how this was tolerated and accepted. The company does very little to combat this and it makes for a very uncomfortable work environment.Advice to Management
Every job matters, every person matters, this is a team.
