Pros

Its a fully remote job and time is flexible (used to). Company used to be full of pros once upon a time but not its been corrupted from the top. Sadly, this is where the pros end.

Cons

Too much intervention on day-to-day work from the top. Every action, meeting, code time is heavily observed. A slight delay in reviews, a slight delay in work due to changing requirements from top brass, then you will get a 1:1 meeting with the very top brass where you gotta explain why the delay was your own and not because of the frequently changing requirements from the top brass. The micro management started from 2025 and has gotten to a very bitter state. Working nowadays feels like being strangled until you choke to be completely burned out, and even then the top brass of the company makes you feel inadequate. This really used to a company I loved working and would have recommended to anyone, but sadly I can't do that anymore even to my enemies. If this toxic micro managed environment is where you thrive you will be at the right place though. You work everyday feeling you will get kicked out at any moment and it could be just about anyone. The company has let go of very good engineers and in their place has brought people who can't even output one tenth of laid of engineers. Just a few terrible decisions from the top brass has rendered the company inhospitable environment to work at. The only reason people there still work is either because they have a good leverage or for the love of money.

Pros

Rv Life still offers some genuinely attractive benefits on paper. Compensation has historically been competitive for the market, and the unlimited vacation policy certainly encourages employees to become very thoughtful and strategic about when they take time off. Flexible working hours also exist, provided your definition of flexibility includes being highly accountable for every minute of your day. Leadership is extremely ambitious and consistently pushes the organization to pursue bold goals, sometimes with timelines that challenge conventional ideas around software estimation and delivery. Employees are also given the opportunity to work with internally built tools and processes that provide an unusually detailed level of visibility into individual productivity and activity. For people who value stability, the company demonstrates remarkable loyalty to long-tenured employees. Institutional knowledge is preserved for years, and change tends to happen gradually. The product itself remains interesting. Building tools for the RV community, trip planning, and campground discovery is a niche that many engineers genuinely enjoy working in.

Cons

Over time, the culture has shifted significantly from the earlier days of trust, autonomy, and flexibility. Decision-making has become increasingly top-down, and there is often a disconnect between leadership expectations and the realities of software development. Project timelines can be overly optimistic, creating unnecessary pressure and making it difficult for teams to consistently deliver high-quality work without feeling rushed. Ambitious strategic initiatives are sometimes pursued before there is sufficient alignment on technical feasibility, resourcing, or opportunity cost. Management practices can also feel overly focused on activity measurement rather than outcomes. The level of oversight and questioning around relatively minor issues can contribute to a culture where employees become more concerned about optics than experimentation, learning, or taking ownership. The unlimited PTO policy does not always feel unlimited in practice. Employees may perceive an unofficial threshold regarding how much time off is considered acceptable, which can discourage people from fully utilizing the benefit. There is also a tendency to retain long-tenured employees regardless of impact or performance, while high performers can feel that expectations and accountability are applied unevenly across the organization.

Pros

The company offers generous unlimited paid time off and strongly supports flex time. There is a clear “get your work done” mindset rather than a rigid focus on when you work. The benefits are strong for a company of this size, including health and life insurance, 401k options, legal assistance, and more. The company generally tries to do right by both employees and customers. Remote employees have frequent opportunities to travel, meet teammates in person, and attend fully covered company gatherings. These trips usually include a good mix of work, team building, and downtime. Employees are trusted to manage their own work without unnecessary micromanagement. There is a strong sense of ownership, and people are given room to solve problems in the way they think is best. Leadership is accessible, transparent, and willing to listen. Employees have meaningful visibility into company direction and decision-making. The culture is collaborative and low-drama. People are helpful, approachable, and focused on getting work done rather than protecting turf. The company genuinely cares about the communities it serves, with a strong focus on building useful products and maintaining positive customer relationships. There are also regular no-cost training opportunities that help employees grow professionally.

Cons

I'm having a hard time coming up with any to be honest. I suppose the only one I can think of is that sometimes, the company will hold on to some of the employees longer than they should after they have demonstrated that they are not really up to the job.
