Pros

- Good pay is the only thing i think of

Cons

Monolithic repo with no standard engineering practices. All 500+ engineers work on the same monolith and the company just cares about new features. There are multiple incidents everyday and the number will only grow with the bad engineering practices at play. The middle management throws software engineers under the bus when there are any incidents. Overall a bad place if you value your mental peace or if you want to grow as an engineer.

Pros

High-caliber team, product managers who listen to customer feedback, amazing leadership, compelling work. Great fit for accountants who want to interact with customers in a scalable function instead of living in spreadsheets and dealing with dated technology and processes.

Cons

Expectations are high, but training and enablement set you up for success. "Make it happen" mentality required. The plane is definitely being built while it's in the air, so patience and proactive communication with the product team is essential, but things are constantly improved as a direct result of clear, constructive, public feedback.

Pros

Really depends what team you're on but I like the team I'm on and being in a highly competitive environment. Great place to work if you're early in your sales career.

Cons

Not matching our 401K drives me nuts so definitely not going to be here for the long term. Turnover rate is high on other teams
