Pros

I worked with a variety of intelligent and capable people on my team. Also appreciated the flexibility and unlimited PTO, but not unique to Root.

Cons

The CEO and leadership are in above their heads. No transparency into the business, and no genuine strategy. They lack experience in understanding the business and managing people. Your typical case of a start up getting "lucky," then blowing through all of the money. I was brought on as a part of growth...only to be let go less than 6 months later, it shows how quickly they can change direction and fail. The DEI initiatives are also a joke and meaningless.
