-Unlimited PTO -Free food, snacks -20% discount on lyft rides

Cons

-Bad management all around, even the teams we hire for don't know how to lead -"Mean Girls" culture from legacy management- if you're not in, you're out -Managers lie about promotion cycles- when they are, when you can promote, etc. -Conflict of interests all around (managers dating directors they hire for) -They tell you what you want to hear, but don't actually care about you as a person -A lot of gossip, backstabbing, negativity -Management is never around, they silently delete 1:1 meetings -They promote people they like even if their performance is low -Many of the managers haven't worked anywhere with real processes in place so they don't have experience implementing structure
