Vantaggi
Pinterest is a company that truly cares about people - from our co founders all the way down to my direct manager. We operate with a sense of maturity that allows us to move fast and at the same time, focus on the details. Promotion and review cycles every 6 months are opportunities to grow and see your impact. We spend a lot of time knitting with our teams outside of the office and many of my co workers have become life long friends. We have a huge opportunity in the market place and I'm excited every day to come to work. It's been 2+ years for me here and I couldn't imagine being anywhere else.
Svantaggi
All startups have growing pains and I've been other places where those challenges weren't worth sticking around. I think we could do a better job at rallying our company around the wins our individual teams see every day. We're pretty heads down and do a lot of good work, so spending more time sharing and celebrating those wins together. Also, this might be minor, but we've opened up a new space and it would be great if we could have the team all together in one building. Real estate in SF is tough, so having an urban campus is better than commuting to MTV.
