Vantaggi
Discord is a company that fosters growth, provides interesting problems to solve, and demands your best. The other review saying “we play games all day” couldn’t be further from the truth. Some staff have in house game nights after work and we have a private bigger game night once a month. No one is playing games during the day, we have to many other things being built. Discord ships features fast and often. The interview process is grueling at times but once you join the company you understand why quality of people is better than quantity. The company is incredible transparent and the people that work here are some of the smartest I’ve ever worked with. Team building, 1:1’s, and management are some of the best I’ve experienced at a tech company. It’s fantastic being able to work alongside other people who love games while working on an interesting, successful product.
Svantaggi
There are challenges around growing the company without losing the company culture. Some perks aren’t as fantastic as they once were but Bay Area employees are already spoiled. Working remote should be an option for long term employees but isn’t offered yet.
