Pros

Salary was okay. Short commute if you live nearby.

Cons

Garden variety tech startup; very sales driven, not much focus on the long term. Was acquired in early 2021 and went downhill fast. Culture is typical Silicon Slopes techbro stuff (still laughing about the time in 2019 when everyone was losing their minds over the Robin Hood app). Not bad if you're looking for a career stepping stone if you can tolerate the culture and don't mind obscene, unachievable expectations. Oh, and they told me they couldn't accommodate WFH two months before the pandemic started. They had their best year ever in 2020 (finally broke even!!), promptly sold out (despite the CEO constantly harping on how he wanted to hand the company on to his kids), and shortly thereafter forced everyone back to the windowless gray box because of reasons. Glad I left when I did.

Pros

Briostack does a really good job of keeping the culture of a smaller company while being nestled in a larger organization. The President and leadership team do seem to be aware of each employee and strive to listen to their needs. They cannot make everyone happy but they have open communication about decision making.

Cons

Sometimes Evercommerce feels disconnected from us.

Pros

Work/ Life balance is amazing. In my position, as long as I was getting all of my work done, I was able to sign off when I needed to if I had appointments or just needed a small break. Flexible time off is also really great as they don't ask a lot of questions.

Cons

The leaders don't do a lot of leading. Yes, they keep the business running but there isn't much help in the way of setting you up for success. Most of it is blamed on being owned by a larger corporation therefore "their hands are tied". You have to find your own way if you want to progress at all.
