Pros

There are still some nice folks around, though most of them are either interviewing or quietly updating their LinkedIn.

Cons

The company somehow still thinks it’s a rocket ship despite the failed IPO and no clear liftoff plan in sight. Leadership’s response? Blame the employees — because obviously we’re the reason the ship didn’t fly 🙃. Meanwhile, upper management keeps spinning around in circles with vague visions, poor execution, and zero accountability. The cherry on top? They hand out stock options like they’re Silicon Valley gold, but really it’s just monopoly money. You’re expected to “fight for the company’s future” in return for a handful of fairy dust.

Pros

I’ve been at Turo for over seven years, and that alone says a lot about how I feel about this place. I’ve learned so much here. I’ve grown as a professional, taken on real responsibility, made mistakes, learned from them, and been given the opportunity to improve and keep moving forward. This environment builds confidence and loyalty. The work is challenging in a good way. It has pushed me to think bigger and solve meaningful problems, and when you make progress, you can actually see the impact, especially on the government relations team. The people truly make it special, from the CEO to the CLO to my VP and Director. There’s strong collaboration, a sense of ownership, and a team that genuinely cares. I’m proud to be here and excited about what we’re continuing to build.

Cons

Like any growing company, it hasn’t always been smooth. We’ve been through ups and downs together, and that has built trust, but it hasn’t been without difficulty. We’re back in a hybrid model now, and while we’ve adapted well, change takes adjustment. We’ve also experienced departures and layoffs, which was tough because we lost some really good apples. That part was not easy. But even through those moments, the company has continued to evolve, and change has brought new opportunities and fresh energy.
