Pros

Tons of opportunity for growth from personal, career, and financial perspectives. Trying to adopt some newer technologies and approaches on some teams, which is exciting. Only recently, did Venmo try to monetize and it's on a great trajectory. Tons of personnel churn at all levels, but on average, talent and leadership improving with the turnaround. Improving day-to-day in engineering, with new planning processes, solid new hires, and innovative tools being introduced.

Cons

A lot of fast team growth across different locations. Some weird fences being thrown up between some sites. Politics are not bad here compared to other companies I've been at, but there's some subtle finger pointing that needs to stop. Unclear what some leaders and people do all day, week, month... How is that possible? Overall, so much change which is hard and sometimes disruptive but I've seen the same things at other companies, so meh...

Pros

Great benefits - paid public transportation, catered food, stock bonus and regular bonus. Allows you to have a great work like balance.

Cons

At one point, it was a start up. Things have changed as expected for considering it is a startup however now that Venmo is the beast that it is - rules have been inforced. If you don't like change or to comply with the rules - may not be the place for you.
