Pros

I joined Duo from Etsy two months ago, and had an extremely positive experience as a candidate working with Duo's recruiter, Alissa. I traveled to Ann Arbor for the full day interview panel, and left energized and excited about the culture and team. In my first two months I've been impressed with Duo's leadership, vision, culture, and my incredibly talented and kind colleagues. I feel confident that I chose the best next step for my career, and that Duo will provide me with the opportunity and environment to level up my own professional development and make a positive contribution.

Cons

Nothing yet - everything has been positive!

Pros

I’ve been here for a month. Coming in I had heard nothing but good things about the company, and I can honestly say that my high expectations were met. Dug is a great CEO. Very genuine, very well respected. The leadership team is accessible and down to earth. Amidst their rapid growth, Duo is doing an impressive job of being intentional about gauging what’s going well and what is not. They are committed to being a great company for both their customers and their employees.

Cons

Space is limited. Finding open conference rooms is sometimes a pain.

Pros

* Culture is awesome * Growth is clear and planned * Multiple locations spread across varied geographic regions * Fast-paced environment * Challenging problems * Has a number of awesome remote workers * Individual/team-level communication between offices is good * Blazing new paths in the industry * Tries to align engineering pay with Silicon Valley instead of the Midwest

Cons

These are almost entirely growth-related. * Pace can occasionally overshadow stability * Global-level communication between locations could be much better * Hiring process has always had followthrough issues and could be much more transparent * Better communication between new teams and employees previously responsible for new teams roles, usually split along location
