Pros: - “Unlimited” PTO, but they are now tracking it - ICs are great, especially staff+. Tons of smart devs to learn from - Nice office downtown - Business is trending in the positive direction and growing faster than competitors - C-level execs are good people who care

Cons: - Health benefits continue to go downhill in order to save the company money and family plans are no longer fully sponsored by employer - Internally published pay bands aren’t too far off from market average, but most employees are still paid at the very bottom of those bands. Merit based increases are often not enough to match inflation and equity grants are extremely small compared to similar sized companies - Sales has struggled to hit goals so bonuses for non-quota carrying departments are significantly reduced compared to previous years - Engineering leadership needs an overhaul if the company hopes to succeed in the long run. The department is plagued by constant interpersonal drama that feels more like high school than a professional environment. Many engineers and their direct managers operate out of fear, worried they’ll somehow upset senior leadership and end up on their "bad side.” Trust in leadership is virtually nonexistent due to unpredictable decision-making and inconsistent communication. While survey results may appear neutral or even positive, that’s likely because employees fear potential consequences such as reduced bonuses, stalled career growth, or even termination, if they provide honest feedback. For instance, a few months ago, anonymous engineering town hall questions raised concerns about questionable actions within senior leadership. Rather than addressing these concerns transparently and moving forward, leadership took steps to identify those who submitted the comments, reinforcing the culture of fear rather than fostering open dialogue.

Pros: The company truly cares about you as an employee, workloads always felt manageable, and the people were smart and really passionate about building a great product and collaborating.

Cons: The layoffs hit very randomly while I was there. Management seemed to be a little lost at how to continue to grow in the space and felt very scrambly. Lots of hiring visionaries only for them to turn the direction of new products around before leaving to some other company when it wasn't picking up enough traction.

Pros: Wonderful colleagues and enjoy in-office experience, good benefits

Cons: There are really no red flags yet.
