Pros

- Remote work - Entry-level benefits - Remote week - shack up with co-workers! - Delusion can be fun

Cons

So, here's the deal: They don't offer a 401k plan. The CEO is super stingy. They have this thing called "Remote Week" where you have to travel and bunk up with coworkers, but they don’t even give you breakfast. The whole company vibe feels fake. Don’t even think about getting your money back for stuff you buy for work. The bosses are all about this coaching thing, but it’s funny because they've never been in our shoes. At first, this place was all over the place with a newbie CEO who’s never worked anywhere else. They did find a good product, but everything was a mess. Then they got this sales boss who really fixed things up, but he left out of nowhere, and the CEO took over the sales team. Since then, things have gone downhill. Sales is all scared and unsure because they keep changing how we get paid. Every time you start doing well, they change the rules – classic move because the CEO doesn’t want to pay up. The remaining sales bosses are just yes-men to the CEO. They’d rather save money than help us sell. The operations team? Don’t get me started. They don’t like us and hardly approve any deals. They're treated like royalty, though, acting like they're in some high school clique. I can’t speak much for the engineering team since we don’t deal with them much. But I can say the product isn't anything special, yet some people here think it’s the next big thing. Honestly, if you’re in engineering or operations, it might not be the worst place. But if you're thinking about joining the sales side, watch out. The CEO’s extreme penny-pinching and know-it-all attitude have made the sales environment toxic. It’s a disaster waiting to happen.

Pros

Having worked at some really amazing companies, I can say, without a doubt, that this company is quite awful. I can’t really think of any positives, tbh.

Cons

I’m not one to typically talk poorly of companies, but I don’t feel like it would be fair to anyone joining this company to not know what they’re getting themselves into. This is a very young leadership team that is very inexperienced, but likes to think they know best. They say they’ll hire experts in their craft, but then they have very big opinions on how they think things should be done, even though they’re inexperienced in it. Feedback culture is terrible and often focused on what you do wrong with very little appreciation for everything you’re doing right. And forget recognition. The way people interact here is absolutely bizarre. Leadership will openly argue in an unhealthy and uncomfortable way in front of other people. People will take credit for other peoples work. They view people as disposable. Especially sales and marketing. If they don’t think you’re performing you’re gone, but you won’t have the tools and resources to be successful. I had some high hopes, and there are some really great people who work here, but leadership across the company is poor and even more so at the founding level. You will not be valued here. Pay is also extremely inequitable.

Pros

CEO and other founders are literal geniuses. One conversation with them and you'll understand. We've built something really special and it is a ton of fun to be apart of.

Cons

Same cons you'll see with any start up. Can be very demanding because we all hold ourselves to an extremely high standard. We all hold one another accountable, so if you're not big on taking feedback or working longer hours, it probably isn't for you.
