Lots of competent colleagues; you will work with good engineers who can get things done. The infra is pretty good which enables you to be productive. Perks are great and all-cash compensation is pretty nice too.
Management in engineering is so-so from my experience, really good explicit communication but also not willing to put the right process in place to make planning and execution as efficient as it could be. The company is changing a lot right now as it transitions from the old no-level world to a more typical organization with lots of juniors, fair number of seniors, and a few staff+. I think the change will be for the best in the long run but the culture hasn't quite adapted yet.
About 2% of US work force and more coming in the near future. Don’t think a lot of engineering was impacted though 🤷♂️ Public info: https://twitter.com/rfaughnder/status/1526624161300246528?s=21&t=wHSmlmbdyVmSyrTBl8N0XA #tech #netflix

Sad to hear about layoffs at Netflix. Curious to know which product area/roles were affected. Also feel free to reach out for referral if any tech roles got laid off. Wondering if this can happen in other companies like Roku? Or is their business model different than Netflix Tc 330k

Hello! My recruiter was laid off (found out from LinkedIn post) after my round 3 interview (supposedly only one more panel to go). Does anyone know if Netflix is laying off? Anyone with similar experiences and know how this may affect the process? My last panel interview was Friday and she just g...Read more

Hearing from a few friends that Netflix is preparing for layoffs in certain areas. DM for referral. Netflix talent is top notch.

I’m a new grad joining Netflix in July. Do you guys think they’ll be safe from layoffs. I have a couple other offers as well, which pay less but I dunno if they may be safer. It will be a real bummer to find a place in California and then get laid off during the year. TC: 250k #netflix #layoff
