Pros

Merge has given me the chance to work on incredibly high-level, challenging, and cutting-edge engineering problems, with real ownership from start to finish. I’ve been able to lead projects that have had meaningful impact across our entire user base — the kind of exposure and responsibility I probably wouldn’t have gotten this early at most other companies. The pace is intense, but the energy, humor, and camaraderie make it a really special place to work

Cons

The expectations are high, and everyone is trusted to own their work end to end. That can be a lot if you want a lower-pressure environment, but for people who thrive on responsibility, it’s an amazing place to learn and grow

Pros

I came to Merge from a software engineering role at a large tech company. In that role, I worked on internal-facing products with limited impact to customers. Most of my coworkers were fully-remote. I was eager for more opportunity and visibility - and decided that I wanted to join a startup. I joined Merge with hopes of accelerating my career. I wanted real experience working on the most important features of a company’s core product. I wanted to work in person alongside people who matched my energy and enthusiasm, and I wanted to truly understand what it takes to build a successful company. I wanted to work in an environment where good work is recognized and opportunity abounds. Two years later, Merge has been everything I hoped it would be. I have grown immensely both technically and professionally - in areas spanning from systems architecture to recruiting and public-speaking. I am consistently challenged and never bored. I am constantly in awe of my coworkers, many of whom I consider good friends. And I've gotten to witness up close what it takes to build a successful business. Joining Merge has been the best decision of my career.

Cons

Merge is not for everyone - if you are not comfortable working in-person and in a fast-paced, dynamic environment, it's probably not the right fit for you.
