Pros

Provides exposure to real-world work responsibilities. Can serve as an entry point to gain initial experience.

Cons

Strong culture of nepotism, where management positions are assigned based on personal relationships rather than skills or performance. Lack of meritocracy, with limited opportunities for growth even when employees are more qualified. Some managers display unprofessional behavior, including yelling or disrespectful communication. Very limited benefits beyond base salary. Salary is not competitive compared to similar roles in the market. Little to no investment in employee development, training, or career progression. Work environment can be stressful and demotivating over time.

Pros

The product is well-designed, functional, and user-friendly.

Cons

The CTO is highly biased, prioritizing family and friends for the tech team hiring, while lacking empathy for employees. The entire tech team is based in Guatemala, where employees are overworked, hired on contracts without insurance, and face significant collaboration challenges. The U.S. team also experiences heavy workloads with little work-life balance. The CEO is secretive about the company’s growth and future direction. Employees receive no equity, despite their contributions.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience — we genuinely regret that your time with Relish left you feeling this way. We strive to build a workplace that values fairness, inclusivity, and transparency, and we take concerns around hiring practices, work-life balance, and employee support very seriously. Our team in Guatemala — and across all locations — is vital to our success, and we’re continuously working to improve communication, benefits, and collaborative tools across time zones and cultures. While not every detail shared aligns with our internal understanding, feedback like this is an important reminder that we always have room to grow. We remain committed to listening, learning, and building a workplace that people are proud to be part of.

Pros

- New Macbook upon arrival - Guatamala teammates

Cons

- Rampant nepotism. Most key hires are personal friends to CEO that he played hockey with - CPO runs organization like a sweatshop, everything is a "non-negotiable" - HR has zero interest in making company better... glorified admin at best - Horrible health insurance for US employees -- the lady at Costco pharmacy said "This is the worst insurance I've ever seen...your basic Costco membership offers more of a discount on Rx than this insurance plan!" - Products are easily reproducible
