Etsy offers competitive pay, great benefits and has great product (if they stick to handmade)
spoiled by too much politics and incredible tight nit group of toxic managers. Just make sure none of them dislike you, they won’t hesitate to coordinate and create fake evaluation reviews to get rid of you.
I'm going to join Etsy in January but my friend told me today that there are strong rumors about layoffs tomorrow at Etsy. Is this true? Are they going to cancel offers?
What is it like to work at Etsy in NYC? I found two non engineering roles that I’m interested in but it seems that no one on here talk about Etsy? If you do work at Etsy, can I PM you so we can talk to see if I am actually a good candidate for the positions I found?
I don't know what I was thinking, but I picked Etsy over Amazon 2 years ago. Had offers from both. Now, Etsy stock is way down, managers are ordered to micromanage, and the PIP quota is about 10% per year. A living hell for engineers here. On top of it, I found Etsy company has very low prestige in ...Read more
How is etsy in terms of pay in sf area for 10+ experience ? Can they pay similar to fangs ? 350-400k ?
The unfortunate truth about Etsy is that they lied big time. In 2023 they actually let go of 25% of their staff. 11% official layoffs and additional 14% in “performance” reasons aka pip.
Hey guys, I recently analyzed all US non-biotech companies founded since 2005 with 50M+ in equity funding before going public (to weed out companies that weren’t attractive for VCs). As I already own Zoom [bought below 200 USD] (did the same analysis + online user growth analysis before earnings),...Read more
Every year, when I do my taxes, losses on Etsy RSU shares offset my capital gains. Because Etsy stock keeps going down, I never have to worry about paying capital gains tax. I sell enough shares to offset my gains from other investments, and my tax liability is zero. If you regularly have large ca...Read more

Looking to evaluate a non- tech director offer: Base $203k Bonus 20% RSU 345 k YOE : 14 Thanks! #Etsy
In my company (Etsy), they didn't do layoffs, but instead, they are letting people go with PIP left and right. I think these stealth layoffs are the worst. Several teammates disappeared randomly without severance. I am looking for jobs just in case, but it's a tough market. My manager never gave a...Read more
Recently had a final round PM interview at Etsy — L3. I met with 6 different people. Each had a different theme — collaboration, leadership, etc. The format was: Tell me about a time you did X? Tell me about a time you did Y? Tell me about a time you did Z? For nearly 5 hours straight. No actu...Read more

Ok. Etay is not a significant company. But it was the most promising Amazon competitor. As soon as Temu and Shein entered the US market, weird things started to happen at Etsy. Best leaders and top engineers were suddenly fired for fictitious reasons Promising projects mysteriously got canceled Pr...Read more
We just got our ratings, and now a lot of people will get PIP this cycle. Raises are 1 or 2 percent. Bonus is cut. On top of the layoffs, the remaining employees get lower pay. The market is tough. I want to leave. Almost everyone here wants to leave, but it's not easy to find a new job. Please p...Read more
