AVOID AT ALL COST - Recensione dipendente - Coder presso Discord

people are kind and empathetic. generally people dont take themselves too seriously here. the product is cool especially if youre into gaming.

been on the same team for 4 years and im starting to get a little bored

I love working at Discord. The people here are genuinely some of the smartest and most talented I've ever worked with, and the work we're doing is really motivating. There's strong focus across the company on what we're building, which makes everything feel purposeful. The culture is what really makes it special though. It's quirky in the best way—people are comfortable being themselves and bringing that energy to work every day. You get this awesome mix of people working really hard on things they care about while also just being real humans. It's rare to find that combination. We recently got a new CEO, and while he is a departure from our founder Jason in a lot of ways, but he seems to also deeply understand and embody the balance the company has sought to strike between fun and ambition, and that's really exciting. Also, the pay is fantastic.

Honestly, there aren't a lot of downsides. We're not public, so the equity piece of your comp isn't liquid. That's worth noting. Every now and then, parts of the work can feel a bit scrappier or more startup-y than you'd expect, but those instances are pretty rare. Most things are mature and well-built.
