Looks Good On The Surface - Recensione dipendente - Software Engineer presso Polar

Let's start with the facts: -our business grew 60% last year, is on pace to do the same and is highly profitable (all of our full-time team participate in a profit share plan) -over 250 clients in 30+ countries delivered over 12,000 ad campaigns using Polar's software last year, adoption has grown 100% YoY -the average tenure for people working at the company is 7.5 years (which is rare for any tech company) I am sorry to hear that you did not enjoy your time at the company. I encourage you to share feedback directly with your future employers if you are unhappy. Kunal Gupta CEO

Thank you for your review of Polar. I’m glad you enjoy our culture experiments with Flowdays (meeting free days), Somedays (4 day work week), and our work from anywhere set-up. As a previous co-op student myself, I believe greatly in the work co-ops can do and the energy and ideas they bring to the table. This is why we have hired over 300 co-op students in the past 10 years. Our mentorship style at Polar has evolved, and as we bring on more and more new co-ops, the way in which our mentors interact with our co-op students continues to mature. Each term we reevaluate and make changes to better suit the needs of our incoming students. I appreciate your feedback and will keep this in mind as we plan for our next batch of co-ops. I believe there is value in knowing that fellow students are making the same wage as you. We have decided to keep the wage at a level that allows us to give as many students coop opportunities as possible. Students join our company in one of four roles and are given the opportunity to shape their role into whatever they would like it to be. Due to the flexibility students have in their roles, the title they may enter the company with may not accurately reflect the work they do during their term. Kunal Gupta CEO
