      Vantaggi

      The perks are very good, and the pay is good as well. The company is not afraid to pay for the tools you need to get a job done.

      Svantaggi

      Many (but not all) managers are either too young or just aren't leaders. The founders are very mercurial, and focus on meaningless details often--they are bad with the big picture. The founders are definitely not qualified for a business this large or this technical--they are trying to hold on to the rocketship without getting pushed out the window. The company is fairly slow paced and seems allergic to adding new products and features. They should be more nimble than the big competitors but instead they are slower. Everyone lives in fear that the values and roadmap of the company will change...again (this happens often). The family drama here is real with many of the senior contributors being related and major family squabbles have and continue to hurt the business.

      Thanks so much for the candid feedback - developmental suggestions are just as important to us as positive accolades. It is in fact true that our founders are brothers, but we are a deliberately developmental organization; and hopefully even since this review has been posted you've seen materially positive progress in how we operate and work together to drive the business. I think it's pretty clear by now that the leadership team is in this together for the long haul and we are incredibly excited at the positive momentum and trajectory of the business!

      Smaller company, so low in the prestige

      Vantaggi

      - lots of ownership - decent middle management - great teammates - learning a lot - older employees do tend to have competitive RSU grants and salaries

      Svantaggi

      - tons of legacy systems (10+ years version of Ruby on Rails... 10+ years since some products or services were updated, 0 associated automation to help) - last 2y of leadership has brought on tons of reorgs & changes. Example - recommended PTO days quietly went down, got rid of lots of free snacks, anniversary gifts went down $100s of dollars, plenty of silent layoffs - Senior leadership is focused on 1 thing - getting the stock price up. Has no interest in supporting some of our legacy systems that can prop up new products. - new hires are not fitting into our culture. Inflated titles. Empire building. Awarded for submitting buggy AI Slop code. Encourage working on the weekends. Starting to get toxic.
