Pros

Loved the culture and the people at Sonos – everyone was excited about what they were doing, and I met a ton of great people. It's a good company if you want independence; you get what you put into it, and I had to be a self-starter during my time there. For someone who needs a lot of direction, this isn't the right fit, but if you're self-motivated you'll be fine. Really enjoyed my time here. Great HR, which is a rarity. The culture and the people seemed at the forefront of the organization, which was nice. Awesome product, though the market is becoming more saturated.

Cons

The company hired too many people at once and couldn't sustain the growth. Inconsistent workload, but that probably comes with the territory. Salaries were on the lower end of the spectrum.

Pros

Great culture. People are humble.

Cons

In some teams engineers have to find projects themselves instead of waiting for roadmap which is good also but sometimes frustrating.

Pros

Good work. Passionate people. Good product. Remote.

Cons

Some bad managers. They lost their footing resulting in lack of company vision. Struggled to find working styles that elevated the company (they wanted to grow yet operate like a start up)
