Pros

The people are incredibly smart, humble, and genuinely collaborative. You learn something new every week. The culture feels truly global; it’s inspiring to work with colleagues from so many different backgrounds. There’s a lot of trust and autonomy, which makes it easy to experiment and grow as a designer. The remote setup actually works — great async practices and a strong sense of connection despite the distance. Leadership is approachable and open to feedback. It’s a great environment for testing ideas and pushing design concepts further.

Cons

The pace can be intense — growth brings change, and sometimes it’s hard to keep up. A few processes are still catching up to the company’s scale. With so many priorities, focus can sometimes get diluted.

Pros

- Fully remote - Mostly nice and talented people, you can learn a bunch and the atmosphere is good in the beginning - Once you realize you're not ever getting a raise you can get by doing bare minimum - You can write the ceo on slack and he will respond, which is actually insane considering its such a huge company

Cons

- Everyone is underpaid, even the senior directors. They present employee equity as extra compensation, but make it very difficult to sell shares at secondaries. - Raise/promotion policies are set up in a way where most ppl will never get it. I've seen superstar employees get 2% annual raise. The rest got 1%. - Pay is localized, so you can do the same exact job but get pay half of the compensation if you're not based in the US. - It's either employee contract for less money, and you have some employee rights given to you by your country, or more money but you're getting misclassified on a b2b contract and using vaction days when you get sick. The actual work requirements and responsibilities are the same in both cases. - If you're not drinking the koolaid you better fall in line and keep any opinions challenging the status quo to yourself - Manager can get pretty manipulative, they'll say anything to appease you, but will not act in your interest unless it aligns with their internal politics play
