      Pros

      The paycheck but it doesn't last, every earnings it drops significantly with no path to recovery. The money on paper is good but you need to do your own due diligence.

      Cons

      The company has zero direction, seems to have over-promised to the investors in the past and forever chasing the growth that will never exist. The code base is poorly managed and patches are everywhere. Constant direction changes exhausting and many people cope with "it's like that everywhere". I am from Meta monetization and never seen this level of non-sense anywhere. What a bad place to work.

      Pros

      - Great base comp - Unlimited PTO - Good food at offices

      Cons

      - Leadership is incompetent. This company will die and when it does, it will be no one's fault other than Evan. - If you disagree with leadership and speak up, you will be punished. All SMC VPs hired each other from past companies. They are all corporate ladder climbers from Meta with no morals. - Being a leader at Snap means leading through fear and regularly throwing tantrums in conference rooms. - The ads business is a joke. No matter how many ex-[insert big tech name] engineers work on the product, you can't monetize an audience of 13 year olds or people who's sole use case for this app is inappropriate. - There is truly nothing redeeming about this business, B2C or B2B. It's all smoke and mirrors. I've never seen the population of monetizable users grow, it's only gone down since I've joined. To offset this we acquire the cheapest users possible to appease investors who see straight through this BS.
