Pros

I'm not one to fawn over corporations, but Clever is a truly amazing place to work. The culture here is HEALTHY. Good work/life balance, people who are so genuine and nice and care about both the product and the people, flexibility, and so much more. I got seriously ill a month after starting and everyone was so kind and lifted me up, helped me in any way they could, and emphasized my health above all else. I had over a month worth of time out when all was said and done and was welcomed back with open arms when I was ready. Clever's product is also just really innovative and their commitment to design has made for everything I've ever looked for in a company. I foresee this being a place I'll work at for many, many years to come. One more thing: the diversity in this company is pretty incredible. I've seen many companies talk the talk about DEI, but Clever walks the walk. I'll be in rooms with 10+ people and all of them will be from different backgrounds -- cultural, racial, gender identity, career experience, and on and on.

Cons

No 401k match is a bummer, and there is no bonus structure. That being said, Clever frequently evaluates the market and makes market adjustments to salary in addition to having a really wonderful annual EOY performance review/merit raise process.
