Vantaggi

The people are awesome, everyone works hard and is not afraid to challenge the status quo in order to build great products. The user base is growing very quickly, which provides scary but fun engineering challenges and also means morale is typically very high. It's still an exciting phase in the history of the company even though we're now owned by PayPal.

Svantaggi

Some of the technical team early on were inexperienced in terms of writing maintainable, well-unit-tested code and there's still some tech debt to recover from. But I've never seen a startup where this is not the case; if a startup isn't valuing product innovation over clean code in the very beginning they likely won't be around long enough for it to even matter.

Vantaggi

People care about the product immensely. Also, WFH 100% is really great as an option.

Svantaggi

PayPal's senior leadership is absolutely clueless on how to move the product forward or grow the company, and this kills the I credible Venmo team's work velocity considerably. Senior leadership also thinks inserting ads everywhere is somehow helpful for the Venmo brand and company as a whole. They (PayPal) just removed sabbatical PTO. Horrendous idea.
