*Values focused environment with a strength around recognition and shout outs *Weekly all-hands meetings with full participation from leadership and opportunity to ask questions anonymously, that is actually used and honored *Small teams that can quickly enact change and see the value of their work * Focus on Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion with a full committee dedicated to enhancing the workplace for all *Dedication to hiring really smart people *Really cool products for an interesting industry

Cons

*Things move and change incredibly fast. A true start-up environment. Not a con, but something to be aware of when joining.

Pros

Beyond has a strong mission, talented employees, and opportunities to work on meaningful projects. I enjoyed collaborating with cross-functional teams and appreciated the chance to contribute to innovative work. The people I worked with were supportive, skilled, and passionate about what they do. I also gained valuable experience and grew professionally during my time here.

Cons

The culture shifted significantly following management changes. There was an increased emphasis on oversight, administrative tracking, and process, which reduced autonomy and trust. As a designer, I found myself spending more time documenting work than focusing on design and creative problem-solving. Unlimited PTO policies felt restrictive in practice, making it difficult to fully disconnect and recharge. Workload distribution at times appeared inconsistent, which could impact morale and growth opportunities. These factors contributed to burnout and ultimately influenced my decision to leave.
