Overall a great place to work

Pros

The work: there's something new every day, and a lot to learn and new ways to stretch yourself. Also, it's fun to work for a company that's doing well, and for a leadership team that's open (they host a lot of very transparent All-Hands, Ask Me Anythings, and Fireside Chats). Overall, the culture is second to none: fun and unique, and the people are friendly and super smart. The company and most of its managers are committed to people as human beings, and not just as workers. It shows in the benefits/perks/leave we're offered and the chances you get for your career to really take off here.

Cons

Growing really quickly especially with the recent acquisition, and priorities can shift with little notice. It can be daunting and uncomfortable if you're not along for the ride and up for the challenge.

Gaslighting by culture

Pros

Healthcare (If you ignore the fact that you are grossly underpaid because of it) 90 minute lunches to workout Work life balance in the sense that you are hourly

Cons

Underpaid under the guise of providing better benefits than other companies. You can only use your healthcare in this position if you are also wiling to give up PTO as you will be strictly hourly and get no sick leave. The CEO did not take COVID seriously in the slightest and refuses to reevaluate WFH policies. Upper management has no vision of where things are going and the company as a whole has never heard the word “proactive.” My direct manager was the only one I could actually trust and was hamstrung by his leadership. Very limited opportunity for upward mobility.
