Pros
BoomPop is truly a fun place to work. I absolutely love the people I work with. Everyone is incredibly driven and talented. We work hard, but we also have a blast doing it.
I love that we are a fully remote company, but still get the opportunity to work together at our offsites every quarter. I always look forward to seeing the team in person and we get so much value from these sessions together.
The product offering is super interesting to work on and the company is growing rapidly, which is really exciting.
Cons
As a startup that is growing rapidly, there is a lot of work to get done. Team members can feel overloaded at times and it can feel like you have to work long hours to accomplish everything.

Thank you so much for the thoughtful feedback! We value your experience and hope you know that your hard work is what keeps the train moving forward. Keep up the great work!
Friendly and supportive team culture! It’s clear that the team really cares about the work we’re doing and is committed to building something great together.
Supportive, passionate, and competent team. Work feels genuinely impactful, and leadership takes every opportunity to be transparent and enable every team member to succeed.
To top it off:
- Competitive compensation and benefits
- Highly flexible remote work policies
- Amazing management
- Cutting edge technology
- GenAI that aids redundant and outdated processes that humans don't want to handle rather than GenAI for replacing human creativity and freedom
Cons
It's a fast-paced early-stage startup. Be wary of shifting goalposts, shifting work demands, and the other usual growth stage hurdles that young companies face.
"Fail fast, learn faster" in the age of AI-assisted programming also means suffering the same pitfalls that many other companies are facing today - especially when it comes to tradeoffs for velocity vs. tech debt.
