Hi all
I am considering an offer of Pinterest and leave my current role at Google for it. I was wondering if anyone works at Pinterest and how you see the long term growth potential of the company?

The only form of doubt I have is that I am not sure
A) If Pinterest is still a scale up or more saturated
B) How is the culture (vs Google)
C) What is the international moving capability

Any insights would be highly appreciated

What is the role? My friend works there and loves the culture but I don’t necessarily think the culture in product and engineering is the same as in sales etc. I’ve discussed long term growth with them - there’s lot of opportunity internationally and improvement around their contextual shopping capabilities to keep driving growth in their core product but I don’t think it’s going to be the next Google anytime soon.

International moving i think is heavily dependent on your function and what functions are in the office you want to go to. There’s a reasonable amount of flex I think, but it’s not like you can just move anywhere you want just because you want to.

Thanks for your reply, highly appreciate it!
One of the reasons I was considering leaving Google is the size, I feel it grew too big, mature and career trajectory will take a lot of time. Also, I would love to experience a more "scrappy" culture.

The role is basically (technical) program management for sales operations. There is no team yet for the region and I would be the first and only "team member" (putting in brackets as there is no real team) reporting up to the head in San Francisco.

Pay is a considerable uplift (but not the most important thing for me).
