Am going on site next week. How is Reddit as a job and how is the pay? TC: 350,000
their redesign sucks, can only use old.reddit.com
You know you're saving humanity by getting into Reddit.
I don’t think they pay very well. From what I’ve heard It’s the kind of company that people work at because they love the product not because of the pay
This is not true. Pay is competitive, and our equity has upside. We had successfully recruited folks from Google and Facebook recently
My friends like it. It's a great option if you like remote work. Lots of traffic.
Any tips to get to $350k TC in my career?
They completely ghosted me after I had my tech screen. Only company to do that to me
Go there and delete the redesign
The company is in hypergrowth mode trying to ipo in a few years. Lots of interesting projects and opportunities to make impact. There are definitely growing pain: maintaining a very large site, finding the balance between innovations while doing right to existing users and communities. Feel free to DM is you would like to chat
what about reddit is innovative?
It now intersperses posts with ads that are formatted like posts
I think the upside is really strong still - lots of room for growth. But yes there are growing pains as is true for any company. The company isn’t as mature as FANG - which is the same reason why there’s the upside in just doing some fairly obvious things on the product/eng side. The apps are still new relatively and the web app just went thru a major facelift / update, all of which happened around 1-2 years ago only. The company is still in the middle of maintaining and migrating users off legacy systems yet it’s also building new more modern ones. I think the pay will probably end up being competitive with other major fang companies but the stock upside is way better. But of course it’s a risk, after all it’s not liquid (yet)
thanks for sharing. i like reddit's new design and vibe in general. can you talk about the hiring bar for junior? what is reddit looking for? any difference from FANG?

Meta stock
It's down more often than sites that serve more than text.
There’s memes too
Memes at it again
