Pros

The product is an industry leader in a space that requires differentiation, and ClickUp provides that. Everyone has a voice and is much more than a number, with the ability to take on more work outside of their "day job." If you love to build, create, and scale, this is the right place for you. If you love to be rewarded based on the merit of your hard work and results, this is the right place for you. If you want to be a part of a company that will have incredible growth and accelerate your career and provide you with an impactful story on your resume, this is the right place for you!

Cons

As with all early stage companies, we wear many hats while having to deliver on our core responsibilities, we are creating and building process and structure, and we have the responsibility to scale revenues indicative of an A++ SaaS company. For some people, having that responsibility may not be a good fit, but for those who enjoy that, this is the right place to be to scale your career!

Pros

Some smart, ambitious people who you can learn a lot from.

Cons

This place is an unstable, toxic mess, and leadership is largely to blame. The C-suite is full of egos and seems to make goals and quotas up out of thin air, then cleans up the fallout from poor planning and overhiring with layoffs. There have been three company-wide mass layoffs in less than four years, and that doesn’t even include the many layoffs that have happened quietly behind closed doors. The toxicity at the top trickles down through the entire organization. VPs put pressure on middle management, who then pass that pressure on to ICs. The company can’t seem to keep leaders in place for more than six months, which creates constant chaos and confusion. Strategies are always changing, priorities shift every few months, and nothing ever sticks long enough to make a real impact. Promotions seem to be based more on politics, favoritism, and who can make the most noise than on actual performance. The same people get promoted year after year, and many of them seem underqualified for the titles they hold. If you’re good at self-promotion and have the right relationships, you’ll probably do fine. If you’re quietly doing great work, don’t expect the same recognition. HR keeps saying they’re working on improving the promotion process, but I haven’t seen much change. If you’re considering joining the GTM org (especially the operational side) I would think twice. The new leadership loves to talk about transformation, improvements, and exciting changes, but there’s usually very little follow through behind the messaging.
