Pros

-Your product is being used by hundreds of millions of people -Comparable perks to other top tech companies (food, health, gym, PTO, 401k etc) -Most regular employees are pretty amazing; I’ve made lifelong friends

Cons

-Absolutely toxic culture...constant fear of layoffs, Evan (CEO) suddenly pulling plug on a project -Soulless and heartless management -Company is willing to spend tens of millions a year on events, parties, millions of dollars of security for Evan, private jets for execs, Evan takes the biggest payout in the history of the corporate world...but then we trim certain snacks because they’re slightly too expensive and layoff hundreds of employees (many of which could’ve found a home on a different team) in a cost cutting exercise -We’re absolutely losing the war against our competitors and it was tough to watch it happen -Can’t trust anyone

Pros

- The people under middle management are some of the smartest and most creative people that I've ever met. - Benefits are decent

Cons

- Middle management is all about the political game. - The executive team at Snap is made up by many of Evan's frat buddies - Salary is well below what other tech companies pay in similar market by almost 40%.
