Pros

This is one of the worst places I've ever worked and I can't think of a single good thing about the experience (other than meeting nice coworkers). I've had plenty of great experiences as an early GTM employee at fast-paced startups, but Truv is not one of them.

Cons

One of the most mismanaged, unprofessional companies I've ever worked for. The leadership team (esp the CEO) is rude, inexperienced, and micro-managerial. They constantly shift goalposts, communicate poorly and disrespectfully, and don't know when to get out of the way. Without a doubt, the most toxic and unqualified leadership team I've ever had the misfortune of working with. There are so many other 1-star reviews here within the last 6 months alone: this is a pattern of behavior, not the exception. Talented people are leaving (mostly voluntarily) by the droves. The first 1-star review on here is from Dec 2022, and all the five-stars are fakes. Truv isn't going to go far based on the glaring problems at the top of the company. If you're considering working at Truv, stay away and save yourself the headache.

Pros

I started here part-time and moved to full-time after a few months, mostly because I kept getting pulled into projects I actually cared about. Over that time I relocated to another country and traveled a lot, and the company had my back through all of it - real help with the move and the paperwork, not just "let us know if you need anything." The honest picture: it's fast, it's demanding, and you're expected to be responsive. But there's genuine room to breathe when you need it, I've gone to my manager and asked for time when I was running low, and that was respected. And the intensity comes with real upside. Bonuses here aren't symbolic; they actually reflect the work you put in. Leadership invests in people directly: the CEO regularly shares useful resources and books, ran hands-on training to get the whole team comfortable with new tools (several weeks on Claude Code, walking people through problems individually), and actively encourages building things of your own. I'm genuinely happy here.

Cons

The one thing I keep wishing for is more time together in person. I'd love to see an on-site event happen soon. I'll also say plainly: this is an always-on, high-demand place. That's a feature if you love the work and a problem if you don't, worth knowing before you sign on, not after.

Pros

* Product/Market Fit: The product solves issues in financial infrastructure and underwriting; it's nice to work on real-world problems where value prop is clear and market demand is visible. * Meritocracy: Working hard and stepping up is rewarded; if you see a problem, you’re encouraged to fix it. * Top Talent: Caliber of people here is top-tier. Great folks from all over the world. * Long-Term Upside: Having been here for 3 years, I can confidently say the business fundamentals are strong. I’m genuinely excited for the future.

Cons

* Resource Constraints: Being a small team is generally great but comes with downsides; we don’t always feel resourced to accomplish everything we set out to do to the degree we’d like. * Remote Work is Real: The global nature of the team is a strength for diversity and talent, but it comes with a cost. I have teammates I’ve known for years whom I’ve never met in person.
