Disclosure: Work on mobile infrastructure at Spotify.
A lot of the Spotify app isn't perhaps visible at a first glance. Besides the key features I'm sure you're already familiar with, there is also an extensive number of 3rd party integrations (cars, wearables, voice, social sharing etc).
The app as a whole is 1-2M LOC Objective-C & Swift.

It's a pretty open-ended question, so it's difficult to give a precise answer. It's a larger company these days, so I'm sure you'll find different answers. I've been at the company for some time and I personally enjoy it a lot. High degree of autonomy to solve problems, good company culture, great teammates etc. If I were to find an area of improvement, it's around finding the balance of alignment and getting stuff done across org boundaries.
Feel free to reach out if you have more specific areas you want to know more of.
