Vantaggi

Full 100% remote. People who do the work are nice.

Svantaggi

Leadership is toxic and immature. Owner is not a CEO Leader, he's an owner and just demands from workers. Deliberately underpay. Focuses only on the G in LGBTQ+. Benefits are horrible. Work is uninteresting as there is no vision and almost nothing will ship due to incredibly indecisive leadership. The top three leaders dictate everything, chronically change priorities, and then will absolutely blame employees. High turnover as a result. Absolutely no upside for the employees, all money is hoarded by owner. It's an expensive playground for a few engineers. Nothing to be gained here.

We are sorry to hear that this person did not have a positive experience at our company, but it is a fact that the overwhelming majority of our product team finds the opportunity to work on a global social queer app incredibly rewarding. We see this in our average employee tenure, which is triple that of our much larger competitors. That said, senior leadership must work closely with the whole team, and that absolutely includes setting priorities. We strive to give everyone room to express their opinions and grow. At a small company like ours, however, if expectations between management and employees are not being met, the right path may ultimately be what this person chose -- departing to another organization. We wish them the best.

Vantaggi

Great people and environment, great teams and culture

Svantaggi

As many start ups, a lot of things can be on the fly and change a lot so this place isn’t the best for someone who doesn’t like ambiguity.

Vantaggi

It’s remote and everyone below C suite is friendly and nice - that is about it.

Svantaggi

They’re proud to be privately funded which just means leadership can make decisions on a whim - so there have been a lot of layoffs and from diversity standpoint, they only cater to the G in LGBT as someone else mentioned. One trans woman and maybe 10 other cis women, very few black people and very cheap. The CEO is an engineer too which at first seems like a great thing and he is a great engineer but a horrible CEO otherwise. They’re acting like a start up despite doing this for 15 years now. They’re obsessed with hiring the perfect person who will stay long term but everyone realizes what a joke this place is quickly. They hired a PM only to let their director less than 2 weeks later and have laid off people that they hired within the year. We barely have HR and they’re just a figurehead who has zero power.

We appreciate your feedback, and are glad to hear that you had a positive experience with your colleagues. As a small company serving the queer community, we work hard to recruit a global product team that is going to be rewarded by and inspired to work on our portfolio of apps. Like many software businesses, we restructured in 2024/25. As an agile, global, remote-first business, we offer competitive total compensation that enables teammates to work all over the world, and that is why the average number of years of service at PSS is triple that of our competitors! We absolutely want everyone who works here to be a great fit, and are proud of the diligence we put into our hiring process, even if this reviewer believes that is a negative. Ultimately we hope all our colleagues have -- or find -- a place that professionally and personally supports them in their next chapter.
