Pros

Lots of perks, good benefits

Cons

Spent too much money on things they shouldn't be spending a lot of money on. When the recession hit in 2008, everyone who wasn't profit generating was fired to keep the place running as a result.

We do have lots of perks and good benefits! Thanks for acknowledging those, and we suspect the total package is even better today (with more recent additions of unlimited PTO, 401k match, personal learning budgets, lots of fun events + tech meet ups, etc.). You must have been a formative part of who we are today during those very early start-up years! Our People & Development team checked around a little, and no one really remembers the event you are referencing nearly ten years ago. We are always happy to address feedback, but apologize that on this one we’re at a loss. No doubt, 2008 was a rough time for most companies. Backstop is a very different place today with a lot of growth and many new people, including those on the leadership team. We’re glad to have been part of your journey, and best wishes.

Pros

Loved the team I was on. Processes are lock-tight with stellar internal trainings and resources to prepare you for your role. Help was always available from leadership. Pay and benefits were good too.

Cons

Volume of work was way too high creating burnout. Culture was too political and mainly leaning one way. Executives can be way too harsh toward middle management seeing this on more than one occasion on calls.
