Pros

Perspective: Growth / Marketing, not Sales Pros - High trust and autonomy: Genuine backing from leadership to test ideas and think creatively. If you can make a clear, logical case, you’re almost always given support and room and to execute. - Sophisticated growth capability: Growth teams have dedicated ops and engineering support. This level of infrastructure enables experimentation that most ANZ B2B companies don’t have exposure to. - Very strong product and fundamentals: Clear right to win, large TAM, solid unit economics, and strong funding. This allows the business to take a longer-term view on bets that won’t pay off immediately. - Access to global best practice: Opportunities to train at HQ, spend time there, and work closely with global teams.

Cons

Growth / Marketing lens - US-centric by default: International teams may need to put in additional work to build support for new segments or regional GTM strategies that haven’t yet been proven in the US. This is expected though - Five days in office: Heavier than most companies and can be challenging for people with young families. That said, the office culture is genuinely strong and the perks make it easier than it sounds (commuting costs covered, daily meal allowance when in-office).

Pros

Some of the people are kind, intelligent, and very thoughtful, which made the rest manageable when it unbearable Fancy perks: food, coffee bar

Cons

This is the worst company I have ever worked for. Inexperienced leadership and middle management creates an air of stress, anxiety, and frustration across all areas of the workplace. People often snap at each other, burn out, and successes are rarely recognized or celebrated. There is no sense of team unity. I even witnessed a monkey being brought into the office to be posed for photos during an end of quarter celebration. There is little flexibility for people not being in-office due to family/outside issues. There are too many meetings with no clear organization or purpose, and messages/emails are often sent late into the night, on holidays, and on weekends. I wish someone had warned me not to work here before I started, it was some of the worst days of my life.
