Pros

- Overflowing with benefits - They try very hard to uphold and maintain a good people culture. Very few companies do this. - Opportunity for travels to Sydney - Very successful business. The company is not going anywhere, it's here to stay.

Cons

- Tricky to advance and get promoted - Sometimes unclear about roles and responsibilities - Hires overqualified applicants for jobs that actually can be done by juniors - During my time, management was unsupportive of QA's integration with the engineering teams

Pros

⁠The work culture is amazing and highly collaborative. There are plenty of opportunities to learn new technologies, and the perks/benefits are excellent.⁠The work culture is amazing and highly collaborative.

Pros

Product is beloved by users. Brand affinity is second to none which makes being a marketer a lot of fun. Genuinely good and caring coworkers who want to build something great. Hiring bar is high. Vibe and Thrive benefit is clever and unique.

Cons

Behind the brand is a cult like culture with the “founders” surrounded by yes people (whether they are aware of it or not). Mediocrity seems to be tolerated among management’s “old guard” causing tension and churn with newer and sometimes more experienced leaders. Insecure leaders at some of the highest levels perpetuate much of the toxic behaviors described in the reviews below such as gaslighting and favoritism. People “disappear” with little to no explanation, but hey, it’s the “Canva way”.
