Gremlin Reviews

Start-ups are a challenge for both founders and employees. We appreciate the Pros that you listed above, and we’re proud of how we’ve expanded on those values since your time with the company. Over the past year we’ve more than doubled our workforce, on-boarded many successful customers, brought in another top-tier investment partner, and bolstered our leadership team with industry veterans. Our employees report strong engagement and support for management and we remain very excited about our future. Not every employment opportunity ends up being the perfect fit, and while we disagree with many of the Cons that you listed we respect your perception. Some of the things you listed were valid at the time, but are no longer true. What we will say is that these first-time founders are advised by sophisticated advisors and experienced executive leadership. Departments are led by seasoned professionals who organize and prioritize projects. We hold biweekly All-Hands meetings with time dedicated for Q&A (spontaneous and presubmitted). We want to address the Diversity and Inclusion comments. This is something we expect will require sustained, focused attention of our leadership team. We are absolutely committed to building a diverse team, and building an environment where people from underrepresented groups want to keep their careers here for years to come. In practical terms, this means we’re committed to paying equitably, reviewing for bias in all promotion decisions, sustained and continual attention to bias in hiring, and fleshing out our leadership team with more diverse viewpoints. As a startup, we still have a lot of work to do on these fronts, but we’re already seeing good results. We expect that to improve over time as we demonstrate our commitment to inclusive, supportive teams. Gremlin has been and will continue to be a great place for ambitious professionals to contribute and lead. It’s difficult to get everything right for everyone all at once, but our team is striving to build something great and improve upon our successes. We wish you the best as you continue your career.

We are sorry you had such a negative experience during your time here and appreciate the detailed feedback. Our current average tenure is more than 3-years, and we’ve had only a couple voluntary departures in recent years. We have made incredible strides to make Gremlin a place where every employee can thrive and feels like they belong.
