Outrageously good company to work for
Pros
Braze treats its employees as human in every way, from the amazing salary and benefits, to trusting you to do you job and do it well. I don’t see any micro managing, nor any issues with being able to work flexibly according to what works best for you and will enable you to do your job best. It’s so easy to make friends and there doesn’t feel like there is a professional barrier between individuals, helping you to feel at home quickly. The hiring feels very diverse, in that the company focuses on “culture add” rather than “culture fit”. Rather than hiring a bunch of the same types of people and it becoming an echo chamber, new voices with new perspectives are constantly being added. The company is expanding quickly but it seems to be managed incredibly well so far with few sacrifices.
Cons
None so far but will update this in future if anything comes up.
