Good company - Anonymous employee Patreon Employee Review

- Super supportive team - Positive and encouraging environment - Got involved in very creative projects

Big organization - you need to make your work heard and seen

- Strong, meaningful mission that is genuinely motivating. - Great benefits and a great workspace. - Talented, driven colleagues across teams. - Reasonable compensation for non-technical roles.

- The CEO is deeply involved in most decisions, slowing execution and limiting team autonomy. - Inexperienced executives resulting in inconsistent strategy, execution gaps, and unclear accountability. - High leadership turnover and repeated layoffs, creating instability and eroding trust across the organization. - Lack of direct, timely feedback outside formal cycles, leading to surprises and low psychological safety. - Lack of strategic focus and frequent priority shifts to chase competitors instead of following a clear, long-term roadmap. - Decisions often driven by the loudest voices or “vibes” rather than evidence and clear metrics. - Poor work-life balance contributing to burnout.
