Family plan is the best value

Six accounts, $20/month. Splitting that with parents makes it $3 each.

Ad-supported tier got more aggressive

Free tier is borderline unusable now. Pre-roll and mid-roll combo.

Catalog and discovery still best in class

Daily Mix has been right more often than wrong for years. The only thing that consistently introduces me to music I'd never search for.

Music data scale is unique

If you want to work on personalisation at hundreds of millions of users, there are maybe three companies in the world to do it at. This is one of them.

Stockholm + remote balance is great if you live in Sweden

Lots of Nordic-style policies — generous parental leave, predictable hours. As a US remote employee some of those benefits don't translate directly.

Squad model still mostly works

Squads, tribes, chapters. The autonomy is real. The downside is duplicated effort across squads. Net positive for me as an IC.

Demo — solid catalog, mixed UI changes

Demo content. Catalog breadth gets praise; UI redesigns get mixed reactions.

Demo — squad model still appreciated

Demo content. Reviewers cite autonomy and clear team missions.
