Pros

- A supportive and fun team at the IC level, including some middle managers who genuinely care about their employees - benefits are decent compared to similar companies

Cons

- Company has gone downhill due to poor senior leadership who’ve turned a once fun place to work into a toxic political environment where teams and individuals are pitted against one another - Innovative ideas keep getting shot down or severely constrained by leaders out of fear but with an activist investment firm coming in and now demanding innovation, leaders have been quick to place the blame for lack of innovation on those below in order to protect themselves - there is a growing lack of diversity at the senior leadership level that is now trickling down to teams due to leaders hiring from their own pool of candidates, rather than sourcing diverse talent in the broader market that can bring differing perspectives to the company

Pros

Most of the people I worked with on a daily basis were great. They care about the users and want to make a positive impact in the dating space.

Cons

Since the new management team has taken over, there has been a noticeable change in the company. The compassionate, inclusive, and open environment has turned into one that uses threats and fear as a way to "motivate" employees. It's sad to see as Tinder has a lot of potential to do great things, but with the current leadership team and directors that won't be a possibility.

Pros

The perks are very solid. Who doesn't love having free catered lunches/dinners? Some of the people are really fantastic to work with and others... not so much.

Cons

Late nights, poor direction, management only seems to care about the bottom line. Some of our most recent features haven't had the smoothest rollout. Usually our customer support team helps to improve the situation a bit, but lately they've been using canned responses which make us all seem lazy. It would be great if we actually listened and supported our customers through all phases of our design process. This no single breaking point, but rather many. Just because Tinder is one of the top dating apps at the moment doesn't mean the team can rest on their laurels. Keep improving UI/UX and treat people like human beings.
