Pros

decent culture, decent work life balance in BAU

Cons

poor pay, bad executive culture (they do what they want when they want, including DEI committees or any of the equity reviews that occur), prioritization of deadlines over people, still stuck in mindset of private company, many people within the company who were in it for over 20+ years need to go and need people/management needs to come in. you also do not get promoted even after 4+ years in the same company. When going into the office, they separate the executive team into another floor, and 'normal' employees into another floor. I have never seen such blatant disregard for executives who do not even want to be in the same floor as regular employees. CEO is nowhere to be found.

Pros

Here's something fun: Petline hasn't launched yet but they've already made me a better pet-parent. Now certainly, "become a better pet-parent" wasn't one of my goals when I accepted the role, but I've been surprised a few times by my personal growth since I joined the team. On career goals I'll say this: to the credit of the management team at Petline, they've recognized talents and areas I where I thrive before I did. I've been given opportunities that I didn't expect and for which I am deeply grateful. Back to pet-parenting, Petline is a startup and every person at this company is heavily committed to our mission and goals. Just working alongside like-minded folks has made me consider who I am as a pet-parent. I know my pets better than I did before and I know they are happier for it. Petline won't always be a startup, but I'm confident that as we move forward it will be with integrity and the intention to foster an environment where individual strengths are recognized, and weaknesses are supported.

Cons

Petline is a startup and anyone familiar with the concept should know that it takes hard work, a lot of brainpower, and constant flexibility. It can be hard to accept and frustrating when business decisions seem to flow and change like water, but it's rewarding. It might not be for right for everyone, but when it's right, it's right.
