Pros
I've worked at fast growing startups before and GlossGenius is the first place where I am genuinely learning new things. You're given a lot of ownership and ability to build cool things. Leadership is extremely supportive of new ideas and encourages continual evolution. The leadership team is customer obsessed and while sometimes it can be challenging to incorporate different types of customer feedback, it is so rewarding to be able to act on customer requests and get it into the hands of small business owners the same day and actually see the impact you're having. The customers we serve rely on our product for much of their daily lives, so the whole team takes what they do seriously because it is. Senior leadership provides a lot of learning opportunities. Based off of my experience having seen leaders at other companies, senior leadership here is top tier. The other teammates I work with are incredible too as they're all very smart. The team operates heavily with AI. Compensation is competitive for a company at this stage, equity is real given the recent raise and valuation step-up, and the benefits are solid. Career growth is fast if you're good as I've seen people move up two levels in a short period of time because the company is expanding faster than it can promote from outside.
Cons
None really. If you need to be told what to do or need a lot of structure, you might not do well here.
