    Awesome org within Snap - loving it so far. Great WLB, excellent managers.

    Tech maybe the biggest letdown - imho if you care about good technical challenges, don’t join Snap: I haven’t seen any project that has impressed me significantly.

      OP
      Could you elaborate on tech? legacy tools or just not able to gain significant depth given the projects?

      Sure. Think of it this way: Snap is a client of the big cloud providers. Thus, the “hard infra/scaling” problems are mostly outsourced. The “secret sauce” special to Snap is the Snapchat mobile app. The challenges client side are mostly standard software eng, which isn’t my cup of tea.

      Thus I would put it in the “lack of depth” category. Things are changing for the better here, but we are still behind the big vendors here due to our smaller size.

    Culture is pretty relaxed. Good amount of collaboration with other orgs. WLB is family friendly. Management has quite a few ex-Google people. There's headcount so go apply.
