Vantaggi

Remote work is the only benefit.

Svantaggi

They will offer certain things at time of employment but then take those benefits away without any notice. You will be micromanaged. Micromanaged to the point that you have to input every move you make into a spreadsheet. You have to keep your manager updated every hour with what you are working on. So many useless meetings every day. They push their employees with scare tactics but do not have any procedures in place for their departments. Do not expect to advance or receive any type of incentives for your work. The role you start in, you stay in or move to a lower level position due to the nepotism. HR is also uneducated regarding labor laws and EEO. They think claiming to be a startup protects them from any type of legal action. That’s where the uneducated parts plays a role. The company is ran by children who all know each other outside of the company prior to forming the organization. The benefits are terrible. No one has ever heard of the insurance carrier, the deductible for families is outrageous compared to other providers.

Vantaggi

I genuinely love working here. The ability to work from home is a huge benefit. The PTO plan is amazing and it truly supports a healthy work/life balance. Everyone works together as a team. It’s a supportive environment where people are respected and encouraged to succeed.

Svantaggi

Like any growing company, things can move quickly and processes may evolve over time. Occasional changes can take some getting used to, but overall leadership is very receptive to feedback.

Vantaggi

Remote work. Some genuinely good people work here. Unlimited PTO (still don't know if they would hold that over your head if you actually took the time you need).

Svantaggi

The culture used to be great. Leadership was communicative. Expectations were set. They allowed us many freedoms to build our own culture. But like a light switch, their whole outlook changed; suddenly, revenue was not good, and suddenly, we had to cut jobs. I got laid off with no warning at all. via an email telling me "My work mattered." I never felt so disposable in my life. They were definitely warning signs I ignored for the sake of doing my work and keeping the culture we built alive. But in the end, we are just disposable to these people; of course, their salaries were not affected at all, just cut people with no warning, citing "business needs." Classic inner-circle company: the few at the top get the biggest slice. There were some "leadership" people I never even heard from, not even in quarterly meetings, probably making my salary three times and then some. This wasn't a problem at the start, but Product slowly wanted to have hands and eyes on everything engineering does. Micromanaging from other areas slowly started to creep in as well. I'm 100% convinced they just want to set Product up to Vibecode directly and cut engineering entirely. An extreme fake positivity aura engulfs anything outside engineering until they can't keep it up, and they have to show their true colors.

Thank you for taking the time to share your perspective. We appreciate you calling out both the positive aspects of your time here and the areas where we fell short. Feedback around communication, leadership visibility, and how decisions are experienced by the team is important, and we take it seriously. Moments of change are challenging, and while decisions are made with care, we recognize they can still feel difficult and personal. We are continuing to focus on improving how we communicate and support our team through these transitions. We wish you the best in what’s next.
