Blinders, I’m considering an offer with the security engineering team at Stripe. Any feedback on the work, work-life balance and the leadership in the org ? Thanks in advance.
Role offer?
Is this for that secure computing position I was seeing on LinkedIn
Offer? Location?
I am reading a few posts on blind that Stripe now has 15% mandatory PIP and lots of new hires are actually hire to fire. Be careful.
Fake rumor
No it’s true. I’m a dev and one of them. I just joined 3 months ago
Who’s the hiring mgr?
It is a Google culture under Niels
Find the recent thread “Do not join Stripe” because there are a lot of nuggets of truth there. Make sure you’re comfortable with that stuff so you can make an informed decision.
Question, are you in the security org? I ask as I'm in the same position as the OP. I've found that security teams in general are very different from product teams and other infrastructure teams. Usually more chill and relaxed (unless you're in incident response). Particularly in this case where almost the entire leadership chain is fairly flat and from Google which has generally good WLB.
Seems interesting & challenging- take it
