Pros

- Great Product - Great opportunity to talk to amazing product teams in the tech industry - Talented people - Good pay

Cons

I would strongly advise against joining Amplitude. One of the core values of Amplitude is growth. However, this is the complete opposite of the truth in certain groups. It seems to be a practice to push people out of the business so they can hire from outside. At some level this is okay, however, when so many longstanding people leave or you have a revolving door of employees, it impedes your ability to grow and you lose good people. Certain leaders at our company are blatantly unethical and have had several complaints filed against them that have been ignored. One leader in particular seems to be protected and has no respect in the organization. Many find this person to be a detriment to the business. Many people at Amplitude stay because there is hope due to the strength of our product. However, many committed employees and cheerleaders of Amplitude are leaving because of the toxic work culture.

Pros

Employees are encouraged to explore AI and automation tools, which creates strong opportunities to build future-relevant skills and experiment with process improvements beyond traditional role boundaries.

Cons

There can be a strong culture around visibility and perception here. In practice, employees often learn that highly visible work tends to carry more weight in performance and compensation discussions than work happening behind the scenes. It creates an environment where people naturally optimize for exposure rather than long-term process improvement. For prospective employees, especially those who prefer impact-driven work over visibility-driven work, It's worth thinking carefully about whether this environment aligns with your working style and career expectations.
