Really great team full of kind and supportive people who were all incredibly smart and motivated. Engineering culture was surprisingly mature for such a small and young team, which was a credit to engineering leadership themselves being great individual contributors beyond their managerial duties.

We were hiring incredibly rapidly immediately before multiple rounds of layoffs. It was an almost overnight shift that not only heavily impacted morale but made me question our leadership for why they had noticed the these negative signals so late.
