Pros

Work from home flexibility, most of the people are good people

Cons

Aggressive productivity targets not realistically aligned with actual workload. They are attempting to apply a standardized performance metric to a product that is significantly different each time; most employees regularly work late during the week and more on the weekend to achieve the target. The necessity of consistently working significantly more hours than 40 destroys the benefits of work from home. Unlimited vacation apparently means three weeks. Generous, sure, but if you mean three weeks, say three weeks. Work is reviewed, and you are docked if certain errors are found. While you are free to ask questions of coworkers, you are not working with a team. You are alone, and mistakes are held against you. Some of the things you can be held against could be readily solved by the technology the company is supposed to be developing, but rather than address the tech, they punish the drafter

Pros

I genuinely enjoyed many aspects of working at EvenUp. I had the opportunity to work alongside incredibly talented, supportive colleagues who were passionate about their work and committed to helping clients. The mission is meaningful, and there are many people throughout the company who truly care about making a difference. Pros: Talented, collaborative coworkers, supportive teammates and managers, benefits, flexible hours.

Cons

Unfortunately, my experience ended with an unexpected layoff that was not preformance-related, which made the outcome especially difficult to reconcile with the positive feedback I had received. While I recognize that companies sometimes have to make difficult business decisions, the experience highlighted how little job security employees may have, even when they are performing well and contributing to the company's success. It also appears that an increasing number of positions are being outsourced to overseas countries, which is leading to loyal North American based employees being pushed aside for cheaper help. The decision itself was disappointing and had a significant impact on morale. It was difficult to see dedicated employees leave despite their contributions. Additionally, the company lacks alignment in terms of their own knowledge base and scope of work, which makes it difficult for anyone to maintain a consistent work flow and end product. Cons: Limited job security, lack of transparency around workforce decisions, morale can be affected by unexpected organizational changes, some jobs are being outsourced to overseas countries, lacking work-life balance, easy to get burnt out.
