Pros

- great coworkers within teams - benefits and perks on par with top SV companies/startups - collaborative work environment

Cons

- poor management, people with no experience get promoted into leadership positions and make power plays - low salaries for everyone outside eng, sales, and HR - very fratty/bro environment which idolizes NCAA athletic resume over job experience - lack of direction. employees told to take ownership over projects and then are micromanaged or fired for not doing things a certain way

Pros

Very competitive salary, good remote working flexibility

Cons

Easily the most dysfunctional company I’ve ever worked for. Hilariously bad management. Culture that promotes short-term revenue at all costs, including the psychological well-being of its employees. The tech stack is the worst I’ve ever seen. Completely unscalable, and buggy. It’s a tied together with rubber bands and duct tape. Expect to work under highly stressful conditions on projects that you’re embarrassed to be working on because they’re such broken experiences, riddled with bugs. I believe that I became a worse product manager working here because I learned such bad habits. It’s shocking this company is successful as it is.

Pros

Profits for top echelon and engineers. The service is a growing entity with thousands of independent contrators and a lucky few happy followers.

Cons

No firewalls to protect identity. Easy to hack for scammers.
