Pros
The snack game is on point. Can't argue with that one. For the most part, coworkers are fantastic human beings. Remote first company Company is doing very well financially
Cons
Leadership suffers from a severe lack of attention to detail, direction, and the ability to engage in self-reflection. We have hired an inordinate amount of people that are not interested in learning how this business functions, whose sole goal is to politic, increase pressure, and prove their worth in way that is harmful to those who work under them. The promotional structure here is non-existent. It is dependent not on the merits of the work that you do, but more on the ability one has to cozy up to their superiors. The pay is severely under market, and while the snacks are good, there is no amount of (mediocre) birthday cookies that can make up for the fact that affording to live while working here is a challenge. The pressure at this company starts at the very top. We are asked to do the impossible on a daily basis. Middle management is aware of this, but lack the spines to tell leadership. This company has unfortunately created a culture of distrust. At one time you could have a conversation with leadership about your concerns, but it doesn't seem like anyone is too interested in that these days.
