Vantaggi
- Amazingly intelligent and empathetic co-workers. Above all else, the people you work with here won't make you dread getting out of bed each morning.
- Huge industry opportunity at the intersection of technology and advertising. Above-average product and compelling SaaS-based business model.
- Clear value proposition in a notoriously opaque industry.
- Senior leadership is overly transparent - sometimes, almost to a fault - with the broader employee base about company direction and strategy.
- Scaled, innovative culture; start-up feel at a 700+ person company. Great perks, above-average benefits.
- Merit-based performance review: top individual contributors and managers are afforded growth opportunities both vertically and horizontally within the organization. This is not a place where you should ever feel stifled - if you have a way to improve upon process or output, don't ask. Just do it. Even if it doesn't stick, you will be recognized.
- Let's be clear: this is a values-based company. Yes, it is publicly traded. But it hasn't been profitable in the 2.5 years since IPO'ing, and if the C-levels were concerned about proving to Wall Street the company could turn a profit, they would have fired the majority of its sales staff like EVERY other ad tech company has already done.
Svantaggi
- Engineering turnover. Understandable in the Bay Area.
- Compensation has improved, but remains at- or below-market.
- Organizational communication and general infrastructure are wanting. The nature of the industry and the reality of technology companies means that the company often sacrifices long-term stability for short-term relief.
