Vantaggi
Trail day once a month. Health and dental benefits are good. Working for an outdoors app makes certain aspects fun.
Svantaggi
The CEO and senior leadership make it difficult to enjoy working at AllTrails. They tend to micromanage projects, which may cause set backs, and yet the blame still trickles down. Be cautious if you disagree with the CEO about anything. It appears to me that leadership operates under a hire fast fire fast mentality. Many employees, including ones that did their job well and were enjoyable to work with, have been let go for a variety of reasons that rarely ever add up. Quite a few other talented employees have left for better opportunities, seemingly frustrated by AllTrails work atmosphere. Job security is a big question mark. Whole teams that are praised today might be considered useless and let go tomorrow. The lack of transparency has been a major red flag. It feels like the only people left are “yes men”, who are afraid of disagreeing with leadership. The company lacks diversity and it does not seem like anything is being done to address it. It feels like the marketing team holds almost all decision making power. If you are on the design, finance, engineering, or the data teams, then chances are your voice will not be heard. Overall pay is adequate but still well below other companies. This company has the potential to be incredible. It has been a disappointment.
