Pros

Life doesn’t always present itself with opportunities like this. Working at Canva truly has been like flying on a rocket ship and building it at the same time. Being a part of a company growing this quickly accelerates your personal growth in ways you won’t get many other places. Your career path is also accelerated - it’s less about where you’ve been and more about where you’re going at Canva. No matter your background or credentials, you’ll be rewarded if you love solving big problems. Mel, Cliff and Cam complement each other in ways they only tend to write in startup success books. Each of them sets the standard in their area - and each of them brings a perspective that is both unique and crucial for the business to succeed. They care deeply about creating an atmosphere that fosters creativity, excellence, agility and most of all kindness and diversity. The sense of ambition inside the walls of Canva is second to none. The ‘anything is possible’ mentality can be found at all levels of the organisation. It’s certainly rubbed off on me, and is what’s inspired me to stay for years now. We have so much left to do and I’m pretty excited to be there to achieve it.

Cons

Growing quickly certainly has its challenges. Adding lots of people all the time can sometimes slow us down a bit, as we’re often shuffling desks, floors and sometimes buildings. Eventually you get so used to change that it doesn’t both you (I have) but if you’ve come from a really corporate environment it might take some getting used to.

Pros

- There's lots of talented creative and driven people - Really interesting problems to solve as we scale - Having a positive impact on the world through our product - I've been approached by people when I'm on the street wearing a Canva tee who just stop and say how much they love our product. It's nice to know that our product is having a positive impact on the world. - Still feels like it's the beginning of our journey, so there's lots of upside and growth opportunities.

Cons

It's growing really fast - which means there are lots of challenging problems to solve. If you aren't the type of person that likes learning rapidly, and solving problems, you probably won't enjoy it.
