Vantaggi

Lots of autonomy. Everything is always "what to do", not "how to do it". If you want to get involved in product decision making, you're free to do so. If you'd rather dive in and reshape the tech stack, you're free to do so. If you just want to hack and build, you're free to do so. All will be rewarded. The company does a great job matching people's skills and motivations to the work they're doing.

Svantaggi

The cadence can be spiky. The weeks before the company's annual conference can get intense with deadlines. If you're not self-motivating, you will probably not find yourself progressing in the company, as they definitely expect you to take on the responsibilities of the job you want to be promoted to first. It's a good thing for some, but I've definitely heard people feel like they lack direction for what abilities and personal traits they should be working on.

Great feedback, thanks for sharing it. On your "advice to management," that's good insight regarding champagners--the peer bonus program is designed to help surface people who fit the exact bill you're talking about, but I do think as we scale we need to make sure our awards and recognition mechanisms do too, and that they address the exact pain point you mention. If you have any good ideas of workarounds, send them my way or submit a TinyPulse suggestion to Eric (he's great about sending them along), would love your input! -Katie

Vantaggi

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.

Vantaggi

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.
