Best place I've ever worked

Product marketing manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- Competitive salary, benefits, bonus, stock - Thoughtful work/life balance measures like "Refresh" days for my whole team so we can take time off without getting lots of messages while we're out. - Flexibility - work from anywhere, unlimited PTO, lots of different ways of working across teams and individuals - Interesting projects and challenges - the company is large but many orgs are exploring exciting new things and have exciting start-up energy - Regular growth check-ins and opportunities to try new things - Lots of chances to give back through paid time off for volunteering and company donation matching

Cons

- Can be long hours, especially if you're on a global team (meeting times across Australia, Europe, India, USA can lead to 12 hour days at times) - Pretty high workload, often with some degree of ambiguity - the company is growing quickly and supports lots of new ideas meaning you're often across multiple projects at once

Pros

- the company as a whole seems to really try to embody their core values - competitive salary and benefits - management treats you like a person, not a machine or number

Cons

- really large company so there's lots of variation in team cultures. this is also a pro as i think there can be a good fit for most anyone in the company, it is just a matter of being able to find the team that is best for you
