Vantaggi

- Fun parties - Cool office culture, smoke room, free weed - Free lunch - Smart ICs - Interesting industry with unique challenges

Svantaggi

- Absolutely terrible leadership. The worst I've encountered in a 20 year tech career. - No clear vision for the company. Teams operate at the whim of the CEO and c-suite. Months of work is regularly tossed out depending on the CEO's mood. Insane amounts of tech debt. Product is broken and clients are leaving at record pace. - Lots of overpaid, over-confident middle managers who contribute nothing but thrash and chaos for their teams. Huge egos across the board. - Nepotism. EXTREMELY political. You have to be willing to play the game. For being so-called stoners, they're quite deceptive and shady. - Zero integrity from the CEO, c-suite, and middle mgmt. - Teams follow directives from leadership. And when the poor guidance leads to inevitable failure, leadership simply blames the ICs and shirks accountability for their poor leadership. It's been like this for years and getting worse. Basically lots of people with big egos, but minimal tech backgrounds leading a large tech org. Recipe for disaster, which is apparent based on the 96% drop in the stock price.

None. The company is well on track for success.

Vantaggi

I’ve read many of the reviews here from both current and former employees, and while I respect everyone’s individual experience, I can only speak to my own. Weedmaps is filled with incredibly smart, passionate people who genuinely care about the industry and the company’s success. It is absolutely a fast-paced and constantly evolving environment, but much of that comes with the nature of the cannabis industry itself. During my interview process, the teams were very transparent about the startup culture, the pace of change, and the level of adaptability expected. If you thrive in dynamic environments, enjoy solving problems creatively, and are comfortable moving quickly, Weedmaps can be a great place to grow. If you prefer highly structured environments with slower change, it may not be the right fit for you.

Svantaggi

One area where I do agree with some of the feedback shared in other reviews is around company-wide communication and visibility from leadership. I would appreciate more insight into what different teams across Weedmaps are working toward, as well as a clearer understanding of the company’s long-term vision and direction. That said, I also understand that open forums can sometimes become overly focused on negativity, which can make productive communication more difficult. I’d still love to see more consistent opportunities for transparent updates and alignment across the organization.
