Interesting product but lacks organization and free thought - Full Stack Developer Port.io Employee Review

I love working at Port! It embodies everything I love about being at a startup. Every action from each team member has an immediate impact, and I truly feel like I can move the needle. I feel seen, trusted, and appreciated. I really enjoy my teammates and the company culture. Yes, not everything is planned out 6 months in advance, and sometimes priorities change and you need to adapt. But so does the market. At Port, I feel we’re agile and able to respond quickly rather than getting stuck in bureaucracy. Leadership is a message away and welcomes every employee's ideas and feedback. I don’t think many employees can say they have that level of access and direct communication at other places. It’s one of the things that makes Port such a special place to work.

I think working on a fast paced startup is not for everyone. Hours can be longer than your typical 9-5 and processes are still not fully mapped out. Can be frustrating but also can give you a chance to help map them out and have an impact.

Good PTO and Health Benefits. Some really nice people on the team to work with.

High turnover makes it so there is not a lot of continuity in the processes, and adds to the already high level of disorganization. Senior level people are not involved in day to day processes and this keeps them very disconnected from whats actually going on. Trying to pass off a whole AI narrative for stuff thats half built and not a validated need in the market. A lot of the stuff has already been covered in other reviews.
