      Terrible company to work for

      Pros

      - Some employees who worked there were mission-driven. Many of those employees are since gone

      Cons

      - No vision or strategy from inexperienced and overly inflated "executives" - Reactive leadership following the whims of the CEO with no backing and often research against his idea from UX or analytics - Team that is forced to implement bad idea gets blamed for its failure - no setups for success and goal posts that constantly move based on what leadership feels at the moment - Poor treatment of people with sexist attitudes - Company looks like it was going down before the pandemic, but this has expedited its downfall - Rampant politicking and profiling of employees - Recently more than 20% of the company was laid off, many of them women and African Americans

      Penny wise and pound foolish

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Smart, kind employees who joined the company because they believe in the mission and are willing to do the hard work to get there.

      Cons

      People operate on fear and the culture is one where failure, rather than success is expected. It's a really hard environment to feel confident and valuable in. Lots of decisions are made without any thought towards the consequences and effects on employees. It's a penny wise and pound foolish organization where pride, ego, and emotion drive decision making.

      Pros

      From the top down, people work for the mission of the company. It's something to see. Everyone in the company is empowered to make an impact. Smart people share information, and helping the larger whole move forward is valued.

      Cons

      Growth comes with gaps in knowledge, scaling multiple things 1 person managed to multiple teams now managing it means that lots of processes are still getting established.
