Notion

Hiring steadily
Software Development San Francisco, California Watching 2,278 of ~6,351 employees Updated as of Jul 17
The read

Among 2,278 cached profiles observed, Notion posted net positive momentum (+10) over 90 days, but lost its Global Head of Forward Deployed Engineering (VP-level) to Anthropic — a notable departure to a frontier AI lab. The company also shed manager-level talent to Google (2 exits, including GTM and Campus roles) and Cursor (field marketing). Arrivals tilted operational: a Head of Commercial Legal (VP) and multiple Campus Leaders joined, with operations emerging as the fastest-growing function. One internal promotion elevated the Head of Engineering for Growth & New Products to VP, signaling continued investment in the Mail + Calendar expansion.
