Pros

I've been at Patreon nearly half a year now and it only seems to get better. The work / life balance is great, you work how you want, when you want. There are a number of perks and exceptional benefits. It's a very collaborative environment, and everyone genuinely enjoys each others company. The best part about the job is definitely our objective of working to get creators paid. It's nice to be at a company that's doing actual good.

Cons

No complaints or problems so far

Pros

- Strong, meaningful mission that is genuinely motivating. - Great benefits and a great workspace. - Talented, driven colleagues across teams. - Reasonable compensation for non-technical roles.

Cons

- The CEO is deeply involved in most decisions, slowing execution and limiting team autonomy. - Inexperienced executives resulting in inconsistent strategy, execution gaps, and unclear accountability. - High leadership turnover and repeated layoffs, creating instability and eroding trust across the organization. - Lack of direct, timely feedback outside formal cycles, leading to surprises and low psychological safety. - Lack of strategic focus and frequent priority shifts to chase competitors instead of following a clear, long-term roadmap. - Decisions often driven by the loudest voices or “vibes” rather than evidence and clear metrics. - Poor work-life balance contributing to burnout.
