Pros

Obviously, Airspace is on a great business trajectory. It has a solid core product, combined with the startup mentality to keep making improvements and new disruptive ideas. As a culture, the leadership actually does try to embody their ideas of culture and transparency, past just the normal lip service. Through a pandemic and lay offs, the leadership team maintained transparency, took significant pay cuts themselves, and has restored lost income to employees. When calls for social change and justice came following the murder of George Floyd, they made an honest effort to let Airspace's BIPOC colleagues lead the conversation. There's still more to be done, especially on inclusiveness, but they are willing to work with employees to do so.

Cons

There are definite growing pains working in a startup, especially on the tech side. There's a lot of technical debt that doesn't always get prioritized, and it can feel inhibiting. Work can be very siloed, but there are plans to pivot the structure.

Pros

- The company's transparency is excellent, frequent all hands meetings, regular slack updates with all the numbers of how things are going, access to execs if you ever needed anything. - Good benefits (not the best I ever had, but very respectable) - The people and company are very causal. Ive never had to worry about politics here which is great. - Good work life balance. Unlimited PTO has never been restrictive to me. Plenty of holidays. No insane deadlines for working late.

Cons

like everywhere, there has been layoffs in the last couple of years. Culture has shifted to be a bit quieter as a result.

Pros

Nick Bulcao is amazing. He really has a great vision. Amazing team in Operations who tries their best despite the ridiculous metrics they have to meet, many great friendships formed. Overtime is provided but if you’re one of the only ones that takes it, you will get taken advantage of and find yourself with a very unhealthy work/life balance.

Cons

Upper upper management in operations once above the “manager” level is awful. A few in particular. They push and push for more but don’t want to listen to feedback or their leadership team that works on the frontlines suggestions and advice. They don’t talk respectfully to the ones under them and then expect the team to break their backs. Constant changes of supervisors and managers and processes so don’t get used to anything.
