Pros

Hiring has kept up with Twilio's hypergrowth, talent has continued to increase. Openness and constant reassertion of the mission on a weekly basis, engagement with CEO Jeff Lawson and cross-team updates. Still small enough to offer individuals agility and autonomy in problem solving "Draw the Owl".

Cons

Hyper-growth and rapid change has some disadvantages. Working to identify company's post-start up identity and priorities.

Fair and honest environment - great community!

Pros

From the first interview and each day when I walk in I have been welcomed into a great community of kind hearted respectful, fun loving people. It is a community that enjoys the work and growth of what they are creating and supporting professionally and personally. It sounds goofy but it really is a pleasure to work at Twilio and people try hard to make it all work... through the good, bad and ugly. I appreciate that everyone respects each other and no one person's job is more important than the other person's job within the organization...

Cons

Every fast growing family, I mean company has its dysfunctional features and Twilio is always willing to acknowledge their dysfunctions and work through their issues. I am confident if I speak up regarding an issue...and come prepared with a reasonable solution to that issue...it will be heard and hopefully put into action.

The nine values

Pros

The company is determined to hold to it's nine value as it grows, and this makes it a fantastic, honest and open place to work. I've never been part of such a large team that is so passionate, committed and truly believe in what they are doing. The work life balance is fantastic, with unlimited PTO and a "family-first" attitude, burn out is tackled by being offered time to rest and relax. The perks are amazing, travel and expenses are all covered. The opportunity for personal development (at least for me) has been great.

Cons

I fear that the company will lose the ability to scale it's communal, family feel as it grows, but the C-level team is working extremely hard to tackle this problem before it becomes one.
