Turned down Instagram for Pinterest

Joshua chose the position of an engineer at Pinterest against the now billion dollar Instagram due to some reasons he likes to keep with only himself. "I chose to work at Pinterest over Instagram. It was not an easy decision by any means because I really like Instagram and the guys who built it. I'll keep my reasons for choosing Pinterest to myself, but I will say that I don't regret the decision," Joshua expresses on Quora.
