Pros

the office amenities are great

Cons

you are expected to work 60hrs a week and not bat an eyelid. Toxic culture, most are burnt out and waiting for IPO to sell shares and bail.

Pros

- Great offices. The chefs are awesome - Having the Canva brand on your resume - Amazing colleagues

Cons

- Don't buy into the hype Canva generates for itself. They work hard to maintain a positive perception before they IPO but it's not reality. - Senior management is terrible, time poor and generally look out for themselves and their inner circle. - The company is constantly pivoting. All staff are pushed to the edge and most are close to burn out - The hiring process is absolutely ridiculous. Interesting experience but it will take up a lot of your time to prepare for and then go through the actual interview stages. - They underpay. If you're new to the workforce, know that you will get better pay elsewhere. - The experience you bring to the role is irrelevant. The founders and execs will provide a directive and strategy where additional input from the team is not considered - don't bother speaking up, you will be ignored.
