Pros

Incredible Fast Paced Environment where those that can push themselves to exceed are rewarded for their efforts. This is a company that experienced incredible hyper growth and is currently re-examining itself to realize its potential and fix things that have been overlooked in the short-term. As a individual that is still relatively junior, the environment is rich with extremely knowledgeable and friendly professionals, which has resulted in an incredible learning oppurtunity for me.

Cons

This company is definitely on the "Secretive" side of information being shared throughout the company, and there are large projects being worked on across the board that most employees are not even aware of. This lack of transparency is disheartening and really acts to create individualized silo's within the company depending on your profession. In essence, an example would be of those in "Sales" having an incredibly limited view and understanding of the scope and scale of Engineering Projects that are currently underway. In addition, there are a huge number of "Junior" Managers that have incredibly limited management experience who are taking on experienced Teams that have a high expectation of management, and the disconnect between what is provided and what is expected is jarring.

Pros

- Great base comp - Unlimited PTO - Good food at offices

Cons

- Leadership is incompetent. This company will die and when it does, it will be no one's fault other than Evan. - If you disagree with leadership and speak up, you will be punished. All SMC VPs hired each other from past companies. They are all corporate ladder climbers from Meta with no morals. - Being a leader at Snap means leading through fear and regularly throwing tantrums in conference rooms. - The ads business is a joke. No matter how many ex-[insert big tech name] engineers work on the product, you can't monetize an audience of 13 year olds or people who's sole use case for this app is inappropriate. - There is truly nothing redeeming about this business, B2C or B2B. It's all smoke and mirrors. I've never seen the population of monetizable users grow, it's only gone down since I've joined. To offset this we acquire the cheapest users possible to appease investors who see straight through this BS.
