Pros

The excellent coworkers and the mission are what motivate people to stay. There are also attractive benefit packages if you negotiate them upfront.

Cons

There are so may cons about working here. The leadership is in disarray and continues to mention the potential for additional layoffs. While the company claims to welcome feedback those who give it can never live it down because its all recorded against them. Alexi and Eddie continue to have a revolving door on their leadership teams as no one wants to remain at the company and they're pushed out as soon as they voice their opinions. If an employee becomes too popular and threatens the founders' egos, which is not hard to do, they get exited. Recently a senior sales leader was pushed out of the company because she exited the founders brother who was working on her team and underperforming. Career advancements are nearly impossible to come by and so many great employees are leaving as this place is crumbling.

Pros

-Amazing mission where I was literally able to witness lives being impacted -Smartest and most empathetic colleagues I ever had the pleasure to work with -As startups go, really tries to be intentional about investing in employee well-being

Cons

-Prioritizing product initiatives where we invested a lot in some larger plays while some very basic things with our core product was broken -In response to the economic downturn, leadership implemented some questionable reorgs putting many ICs in roles where they were not set up for success -after many years of struggling to support SMB/MM accounts, finally built some momentum towards fixing until it was derailed by latest layoff.
