Pros

- The overwhelming majority of people not in management are very competent

Cons

- Most competent/good talent leave within two years of joining Snap, with many leaving before their first year. - Unable to compete with salary when compared to Twitter, Google, FB, Amazon and Pinterest. - Management are all trying to make their way up, so there is tons of politicking involved as well as nepotism. - Canadian Management team is a major issue. They've stopped coming into the office for over two weeks now. With over 80% of the sales team leaving to direct competitors in the past 8 months, they don't even show up to the office anymore. - The person who manages the Canadian leadership team is tired of dealing with issues in the Canadian office, so is hoping that 100% of the sales team turns over, so less work can be done. - I imagine this is what working in the current White House feels like.

Great product, pockets of good, hardworking people.

Cons

It’s medieval times. All are jockeying to please the king and will skewer each other in feats of service to his majesty.

Not a data driven company

Pros

Young, smart, fun company to work for. Silicon valley atmosphere outside of the Bay Area.

Cons

Decisions are not driven by data. Most of the decisions come from the top without any actual customer validation/feedback. Siloed, compartmentalized information all around.
