Pinterest Environment Employee Reviews

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

People overall are nice. And we value work life balance a lot

The company values collaboration. We prioritize cross functional projects.

The values are aligned with every day life

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

It's simple-fire the men who are making it a horrible place to work instead of letting go if highly talented people who are whistleblowers.

Review from Product Dept

Holding poor managers accountable for bad leadership / responding to employee complaints

Stop promoting people just because they've been at the company since the beginning. Promote a meritocracy.

The culture itself is fine. It's the people that do or do not manifest it that are an issue, and this comes from the top down.

Most laid back of tech companies. Tough time executing.
