Folks considering Twitter, just a heads up that the company culture has been the subject Of now numerous internal threads. Feels like a ticking time bulb before it all blows up like once Uber did. Evaluate carefully if this matters to you.

All internal channels are full of stories of politics (turf wars), nepotism (hiring acquaintances, promoting immediate family members in same org!) and see why it’s being sued by many already.

      Apparently okay at Twitter if you can play it. Am myself quite shocked.

      As an example, recently folks found out that the head of consumer product and his then gf were in the same reporting chain for 6-7 years. Then she (now his wife) got moved to report to his only other product head peer on revenue side and got promoted within 3 months to Senior Director without any clear impact. She barely knows the space she is apparently leading.

    Hm I have been seriously considering Twitter, is this regarding a certain office location or team? Is it that bad? I heard Twitter was a good place to work

    I’ve always wanted to join Twitter because of its high TC. But now seems like an even higher tc is needed to attract people to join.
