Business outlook
Pros
- Brilliant people, usually very kind and personable too - A CEO that has great values: humble, smart, kind (although big introvert) prefers to do it right rather than fast... rare in tech. - A fantastic culture : the company (and the people in it) care about the impact Pinterest has on the world. - Some great events (like Knitcon, an annual conference focused on learning new hobbies from colleagues) - Very competitive compensation - HR that care (generally)
Cons
- A few bad apples in middle management (usually white men who co-opt each other) but this seems to have been dealt with recently - HR sometimes overlooked management issues within teams - There's a bit of a perfectionist culture which can hinder growth
