Pros

When I first started working for Twitter, I was definitely won over by the perks (food, swag, celebrity guests, pretty relaxed PTO policy, etc), brand recognition, as well as the young and laid-back culture. I was sold on the vision that you shouldn't be afraid to take risks even if you fail. However...

Cons

I quickly learned that the internal politics weren't for me. There is a "cool kids club" at this company and if you're in it, you will likely do just fine here. If you aren't, well, good luck. Everything moves insanely slow internally, too. So many hoops to jump through to appease a few of the folks at the top. Some of the executive staff wear too many hats to give enough focus to any one thing.

Pros

The company offers good benefits and company wide perks.

Cons

The Finance and Accounting department suffers from favoritism, nepotism, and poor leadership. Promotions and opportunities appear to be driven more by personal relationships than by performance, contributions, or expertise. The Accounting Controller demonstrates biased and unprofessional leadership, which has created a culture of low accountability and poor morale. High performers are often overlooked while favored individuals continue to advance despite limited contributions. The department relies heavily on outdated and manual processes that create inefficiencies and unnecessary work. There seems to be little urgency to modernize systems or improve operations. The culture also tolerates underperformance, with inconsistent expectations and accountability across team members. This can be frustrating for employees who value merit, professionalism, and continuous improvement.
