Pros

Good benefits, a lot of nice people and interesting work. They are finally starting to remove some of the most toxic pieces of management. I feel like Ben (CEO) genuinely cares about the company, and his employees.

Cons

There are definite pockets of bro culture. The vast majority of women have some negative experience when dealing with the culture.

Pros

WLB Remote work (which is slowly ending). Strong ICs

Cons

Poor leadership vision, strategy, and execution. Rebranding products that already exist as net new to chase a headline. Unclear career growth unless you are internally connected to “the right people”. Middle management that is there to boost their career / repackage IC ideas as their own with zero credit. RTO rollout was botched leading to senior sellers leaving. Lots of toxic positivity and virtue signaling
