Director, Trust & Safety

They mention that this role has global responsibilities a few times, and as much as I appreciate the close relationship with Support, considering the scale of the work, I think this should really be a VP-level title.

Furthermore, you will use your experience to balance the operational realities of a fast-growing business against continuously evolving policies while working to create an exceptional customer experience.

Whew, that's a sentence, ain't it?

Build out and be accountable for all Trust & Safety user experience and performance metrics globally

They mention that this role has global responsibilities a few times, and as much as I appreciate the close relationship with Support, considering the scale of the work, I think this should really be a VP-level title.

Also, I'm not sure why the application asks for college degree info considering it's not a listed requirement. And asks for desired salary (even though there's salary transparency, which is a little weird). Salary is also a little wide.

I don't think it's concerning enough to go into Tread Carefully, but I do think I would ask some specific questions about salary, structure, and seniority during the interview process.

For roles in companies like these, upsides for some can be downsides for others: they're often really old-school working environments that tend to favor stability over rapid innovation. You skip a lot of the startup bullshit, but obviously, Business Granddaddies come with their own kind of bullshit.
