Vantaggi

The Kanopy brand is innovative and forward thinking with a solid business model, which cant be said for all start-ups. The employees are friendly, hard-working, and know a lot about what they do. There is lot of freedom to grow and develop your skill set, and a fastpaced environment that is always pushing you along. The team I worked with was fantastic and doing really polished work.

Svantaggi

The worst aspect of this job was interactions with the CEO who is very hands-on with every employee. She is often outwardly aggressive or derogatory particularly in emails, but when she's not being confrontational she is over the top nice, in a very insincere way. She changes her mind a lot and gives unclear direction. This really obstructs very talented workers who are trying to do amazing things. There's a lot of gossip around the office because of this and people are generally stressed and scared. The worst part is there is no HR to report any of this to. In terms of pay, I felt compensation was fair but other teams complained of low salaries and poor benefits.

Thank you for your feedback and we appreciate your comments about our solid business model and our fantastic team. As our company rapidly expands, sometimes the process is not as smooth as we would like. We now have a dedicated HR person and are constantly working to update our benefits offerings.

Vantaggi

1) Very hands on/learning curve - the company is of a good size that you really get exposure to a lot of different parts of the business, own your work and learn fast 2) Stability - a lot of my friends are working at companies here in SF that have no clear revenue models or future and that yoyo pretty rapidly between "zero" and "hero". Kanopy has a solid business and stability for the future 3) Growth - company has been growing fast. I've been there just under 3 years and they've tripled the team and got some good partners on board 4) Lifestyle/culture - they have a big focus on the culture and work life balance here (e.g. weekly team activities, generous leave policy, etc) 5) People - there is a solid team of people here. Smart and hardworking people but also have a life (I sit beside an avid rockclimber and a french volleyball player!)

Svantaggi

1) Onboarding - when I started a while back they didn't have the full onboarding process set up yet for getting new hires up and running. Probably understandable for a company of its size 3 years ago. To be honest, I think this has changed as they recently launched a new onboarding program for new hires and they are hiring a HR director right now too, so this is probably not a problem any more. They are also really good at career development and managing staff growth too (quarterly KPI meetings etc)
