Pros

Enjoyed the culture and people and getting to know people from different teams.

Cons

Due to the decline in interest "Pinterest" of the product, the company has made sweeping changes to product priorities. Constantly trying to copy other products in the market. But that's not how you win market share. You double down on what you do best and evolve from there and make small bets and eventually big ones.

Pros

WLB Remote work (which is slowly ending). Strong ICs

Cons

Poor leadership vision, strategy, and execution. Rebranding products that already exist as net new to chase a headline. Unclear career growth unless you are internally connected to “the right people”. Middle management that is there to boost their career / repackage IC ideas as their own with zero credit. RTO rollout was botched leading to senior sellers leaving. Lots of toxic positivity and virtue signaling
