Pros

The people are really nice and genuine (except Elon).

Cons

There were numerous benefits to working at Twitter; however, after Elon bought the company those benefits were whittled away. Before Elon, the environment was very professional and decisions were made with proper thought behind them. After Elon, things were done impulsively without company collaboration. It went from the best place I ever worked to a chaotic mess. The people are still wonderful - they just now have poor leadership. I feel bad for those that stayed or have not found a new job.
