Staffing strategy was to hire young in order to pay little
Some very toxic managers retained and promoted
Open race, gender, age, etc microaggressions were allowed for years

Obviously, the cons you outlined are the opposite of the culture we are working to create here. We now have both a lot more clear options for people to report this behavior and for folks to be held accountable for this behavior, and I hope have made meaningful strides on the toxic manager side of things too. Grateful for your time with us, but hopeful we've made meaningful leaps and progress from what your experience with us was. -Katie
Great people, everyone is so understanding and supportive.
Culture is fun and energizing, people seem happy to be here. There's lots of ways to get involved outside of your day job.
Awesome benefits and flexibility - love the remote first work environment, week of rest, open PTO, etc.
Robust tech stack - lots of tools available for me to do my job.
Svantaggi
Experiencing some growing pains but leadership seems receptive to feedback on it.
The teams you work with are phenomenal. The knowledge combination between an internal customer facing teams, engineering product development teams, and Sales are unmatched.
Svantaggi
Excessive use of PIPs to oust employees after multiple high revenue launches, with no explanation, actual documentation, or factual data. Reviews have been adjusted to allow for terminations post pre-approved leaves.
Salaries are a joke.
You are always in a cover yourself mode 24/7.
Management reviews are consistently a 2 or 3 out of 5 no matter what. If a team decides you aren’t in the group, management will put you on a “unofficial” PIP without telling you, in order to surprise you at a later date. Even if they are unfounded.
Beware of possibility of negative backlash post launches. They will feel the need to assign blame ( such as for timelines or issues related to bugs). Regardless of performance or level of involvement.
This is an enormous company with many large paths for career advancement. But micro management is rampant, leaving little room for doing the daily expectations of your actual role. This degrades your opportunities for career advancement.
