Pros

- Very high salary - Work/Life Balance - No one micromanages... but to be honest, they should just a little bit (see con)

Cons

- The worst place for accountability I had ever seen. Costly mistakes and feedback are swept under the rug since no one has the power to rectify it or ensure it doesn't happen again. The company has deep pockets, so it doesn't feel the bleeding. Most of the times, it's best to ignore since every team is fighting for their own interests anyway, resulting in the most passive and chaotic workplace that starts at the top. - Ambiguous environment might be pro or con for some. I was fine with it, but many will easily feel forgotten or useless

Pros

- Great base comp - Unlimited PTO - Good food at offices

Cons

- Leadership is incompetent. This company will die and when it does, it will be no one's fault other than Evan. - If you disagree with leadership and speak up, you will be punished. All SMC VPs hired each other from past companies. They are all corporate ladder climbers from Meta with no morals. - Being a leader at Snap means leading through fear and regularly throwing tantrums in conference rooms. - The ads business is a joke. No matter how many ex-[insert big tech name] engineers work on the product, you can't monetize an audience of 13 year olds or people who's sole use case for this app is inappropriate. - There is truly nothing redeeming about this business, B2C or B2B. It's all smoke and mirrors. I've never seen the population of monetizable users grow, it's only gone down since I've joined. To offset this we acquire the cheapest users possible to appease investors who see straight through this BS.
