Meta reviews

it's a soul-sucking new age corporation with promises of making a difference in the world or finding the next "billion dollar idea". Projects aren't set up for designers or a creative process. Their engineering mantras of "hack" and "move fast" will always take precedence, which makes for failed designs and cheap ripoffs of existing products.

Work/life balance can get hurt as a lot of folks at the office are single and do not understand the needs of having a family. The company is getting bigger. This means more room for backroom politics and aligning people without ruffling people's feathers. Very talented individual contributors (and/or good at politics) are being promoted. As a result, instead of having well rounded managers, you end up having either extremely career driven or super awkward managers. Some of those middle managers are very green, making it even more painful. Some women feel like they have to be extra tough at work because of the Leanin coolaid, making them very hard to work with.
