Beloved brand and product - toxic insides

Pros

Amazing product that everyone globally loves and adores. Big valuation and prime for a nice IPO whenever that will occur.

Cons

The company culture is unhealthy: blame-shifting, lack of accountability, and inconsistent integrity are widespread, making it a very challenging place to work. Communication is selective and inconsistent; key information is often withheld, which sets employees up for failure, and they are then held responsible for the outcome. Sales leadership is erratic and dismissive, frequently operating without accountability. It is concerning that senior leadership continues to overlook and enable this behavior. Leadership focuses more on appearances than results—prioritizing how they are perceived by upper management. They often take credit for successes, but when things go wrong, employees are left unsupported. Morale across the company is low, with widespread burnout. While this is openly acknowledged, no meaningful steps are taken to address it, and there is little concern for employee well-being.

Pros

They take their culture seriously and have put a lot of work into cultivating a nice and welcoming environment. Fairly well compensated with loads of perks although comp is less significant if you've joined in the last 3 years (versus early employees with lots of equity)

Cons

Lots of org shifts and figuring out how to adapt to being a larger company
