Vantaggi

Rank and file has some really great people

Svantaggi

It pains me to write this because, at the ground level, Strava had some of the most enjoyable to work with individual contributors of any organization I've worked for. However, the good things kind of stop there. This is a company where keeping up appearances is paramount, at the expense of supporting employees, engaging in quality engineering, or promoting the people who actually deserve it instead of the ones who agree the loudest whenever the management team does one of their twice-a-year total reinventions of the product strategy (jettisoning a ton of work in progress). You'll hear a lot of lip service given to transparency and listening to employees, but any kind of dissent, even down to simply stating technical facts that might not line up with the story that management is trying to spin, will quickly get met with passive-aggressive punishment.

Vantaggi

The main pros are that there are actually some really brilliant people who work here. They are intelligent, funny, and have an actual clear vision of how things should be done to deliver a great product to users.

Svantaggi

The cons are that leadership only believes in and genuinely elevates white male voices. Sure, there are ERGs and prominent people of color at the company. But the real decisionmaking power is made by a combination of certain "golden boys" and their buddy, Claude. The ones driving the ship actually lack critical thinking skills.
