Vantaggi
Companies are not your friends, but Discord has done ok by us (with the exception of the hiring boom of the pandemic + layoffs early 2024). I appreciate the ability to work remotely, and the flexibility and trust I am given to do my job well. Discord also has pretty high internal transparency, including the good and the bad -- sometimes it can look like leadership is still figuring stuff out, but I'd rather know where we stand! And right now we are on a clear path business-wise and leadership is leading with confidence. Culture-wise, I love that my coworkers all care so much about the product we're building, and I can engage with them directly on any problems that arise. Even working remotely, everyone feels like a human.
Svantaggi
Using Discord at work instead of email + slack makes internal communication a bit messy. It's hard to find information sometimes.
