Pros

There is a good tech stack in place, and a promising future for a lot of processes to get aligned in a way that will set the company up for success in 2024. There has been a better level of transparency from Chris & Andrew for company wide comms over the last year. For those that are still at Go1, there are a lot of great people who are carrying the culture on their backs.

Cons

As a company grows from Start-Up to Scale Up, they have the choice in how to do things. They can focus on the money and make the cut-throat choices, or they can care about the people first. Go1 cared about the people, but after 3 layoffs in one year along with a massive grand scale change in the way of working in post-sales, I don't feel that I can say that any more. One layoff in a year is bad enough, 3 (plus various smaller bunched employee cuts in between) have made this a really terrible time to be at the company. People are tired and many (including myself) feel psychologically unsafe. As a result, this can make people freeze with decision fatigue or completely check out. Any creativity and drive to complete the work has gone to zero.

Pros

Go1 has a lot of amazing people who are working hard to shift the business towards a new vision which will be significantly more competitive and is inspiring to be a part of. Past years of Go1 have felt like the product strategy slowed or stalled, but the energy has begun to rebound as we’ve re-envisioned the product direction. It’s exciting to be part of. The people are genuinely kind, the in-person get togethers (GoGether) are fun and well planned, the culture has improved a lot in the last year!

Cons

Go1 is evolving quickly (feels like a lot of change) because the market is evolving quickly. It can feel overwhelming at times, but better to be moving fast and changing directions vs staying static!
