Pluspunten
THE GOOD: It's a great team, especially for younger members, since new grad hires are the primary recruiting source. You get to work on big brands, and you're typically working on exciting business challenges rather than marketing fluff. Speaking only from my experience on the design team, most of us didn't have to work a ton of overtime regularly. THE OK: The in-person experience is heavily emphasized. There are always fun things going on—from gaming to sports to live music. The downside is that not being seen at these events can be a knock against your future at the company. While it's a hybrid model now, more in-office time is the general trajectory. The largest team in size and influence is the tech team, especially since the founders have engineering backgrounds. Managers are doers. This means you can trust that they know what they're talking about, but your needs may have to take a backseat if they're heads-down on a project.
Minpunten
Managers don't receive substantial training, so employee experiences vary considerably. Again, these are super friendly people who are smart and good at what they do, but not all managers are equally ready to help their team members grow and thrive. Decisions are made from the top down, with the mindset that "a lion doesn't concern itself with the opinion of sheep."
