      Pros

      You have the opportunity to work with some amazing people, clever, switched in and smart. Some great benefits and comp is reflective of the market rate. The 2 week, end of quarter "hive sprints" are great to build morale and work with people you wouldn't normally. Lots of autonomy and the chance to make data informed decisions, working in product teams to drive your own delivery (aligned with company goals).

      Cons

      The biggest thing here is that it's really hard to know what others are doing many wires get crossed and often teams are surprised by changes that come their way. There is no consistent way of receiving updates. Some teams use email, others slack, others only announce during an all hands. The company feels bigger than it is because of lots of overly complex ways of communicating and a hyper detailed approach to metrics and measurement can, at times, make you feel micromanaged. Overall it feels very chaotic which engineering leadership are trying to change. Expectations during hiring are not passed to the right people, with some new starts being hired with promises being made but not backed up by the hiring manager. Performance review and promotion process was recently revised to make things easier for the direct reports but the manager experience feels far too complex, subjective and time consuming.

      Pros

      The people. Somehow Typeform is full of some of the most genuinely passionate and intelligent people I’ve ever worked with. This is a shame, because that is just about all I can say that remains positive in 2026 about Typeform.

      Cons

      Typeform product leadership is completely out of touch and in the dark about what they should be doing to survive as a company. They’ve recently made the choice to completely divest from anything that isn’t an AI-centric product, gutting the product team of anyone not working solely on AI products. While investing in AI is definitely not a bad thing, investing ONLY in AI certainly is. Typeform is still playing competitive catch-up with essentially every competitor out there and cannot commit to a concrete strategy if their life depended on it. Leadership will get excited about an initiative and green light it only to get upset that it isn’t fully implemented in a month before deprioritizing it again. There is a backlog of years old customer requests for basic features that leadership refuses to prioritize as evidence of this flip flop approach to their strategy. When competitors that are <3 years old are able to come in and handily provide better products that are more feature rich you have to stop and wonder what you’re even doing. If TF wants to survive the next 5 years they need a serious course correction and a leadership switch up. Having a CPO that decided to be a CTO too, while having zero engineering background is certainly a choice, and one that the company is already paying for. Lastly, TF has also been stealthily gutting Product and Engineering under the guise of “performance”. If you are thinking of joining R&D do it at your own risk. There are far more stable companies with better leaders out there and I cannot recommend TF to anyone anymore. This is saddening since this was not the case until last year.
