Pros

At ClickUp you will be recognized and rewarded in kind (job satisfaction, equity/income) for your hardwork that makes a difference to our customers' lives and product experience! Visionary leadership from the CEO, who is constantly looking to innovate and stay on the cutting edge! CEO, CTO, CPO and overall management are very hands-on and very technical, which I've found to be different than a lot of past companies. ClickUp is a success story already but bound to reach new heights in the near and distant future. Company outlook is very positive, Product lead growth drives us. Core values stated on our websites come to real life here!

Cons

Startup culture and hence more suited to those who have high energy or who are motivated by delivering consistent high quality results.

Pros

Great comp; ample career growth opportunities. If you are talented, work hard, and you lean more to the "work" side of work/life balance, you will be rewarded with a ton of professional, career, and compensation growth.

Cons

Heavy workload and expectations. High rewards for top performers, but little for middle performers, and low performers are aggressively managed out.

Pros

1. Well funded. Raised a ton at the peak 2. Fully remote 3. Generally good engineers. Though some are boot camp graduates or internally transitioned so the pedigree and best practices mind set is missing in some cases

Cons

1. Most people are burnt out. Senior leadership has an attitude of squeezing out the last drop from every employee 2. Many average folks are in senior leadership position because they are close to the CEO. 3. No psychological safety 4. Fake it till you make it attitude. Watch the ads. They are cringe. Especially for people who work at the company because we know the truth 5. Values grunt work vs doing things the right way 6. Every decision needs blessing from the CEO who does not have good instincts especially in engineering 7. Buggy product. No competitive advantage in my opinion. Was able to capture some of the market by burning cash. 8. Extremely slow career progressions 9. Engineers have no voice
