Pros

- Incredibly smart and driven people who will inspire and motivate you to be better personally and professionally - As someone on the younger side, I enjoy the fact that work and friends blur a little bit - I like hanging out with coworkers on nights and weekends. It makes work all the more enjoyable! - Executive transparency - Excellent managers who give you actual ownership, don't micromanage, and are invested in your career growth, not just their own - Strong focus on diversity and inclusion efforts in recruiting, promotions, and compensation

Cons

- Fast pace is not for everyone and can definitely be overwhelming. I have felt at times as though I'm constantly playing catch-up - While I believe in the mission of helping organizations grow better, I sometimes find myself doubting whether or not I'm truly making an impact on others' lives - marketing and sales software isn't my passion. That's personal, though - Flexibility is a double-edged sword: work/life balance sometimes goes down the drain a bit as a result of seeing that others are online at early/late hours and not defining exactly how much time someone should be spending on work. There are definitely people who manage it well and still crush it at work, but they're few and far between

Thanks for sharing your experience with us, the feedback, and for helping our marketing team grow! I think the push on the fulfillment of our mission is a fair one-the way I think about it, we help small businesses globally grow, and every time I meet with customers or partners at INBOUND I'm clear on just how important and personal that is for people, but we could do a better job making that more clear and front and center in our approach for sure. I think you're spot on we have additional work to do on customer centricity, so thanks for the push there, and I promise we'll stay committed on diversity and inclusion, thanks for your support and the feedback! -Katie

Pros

Great people, everyone is so understanding and supportive. Culture is fun and energizing, people seem happy to be here. There's lots of ways to get involved outside of your day job. Awesome benefits and flexibility - love the remote first work environment, week of rest, open PTO, etc. Robust tech stack - lots of tools available for me to do my job.

Cons

Experiencing some growing pains but leadership seems receptive to feedback on it.

Pros

The teams you work with are phenomenal. The knowledge combination between an internal customer facing teams, engineering product development teams, and Sales are unmatched.

Cons

Excessive use of PIPs to oust employees after multiple high revenue launches, with no explanation, actual documentation, or factual data. Reviews have been adjusted to allow for terminations post pre-approved leaves. Salaries are a joke. You are always in a cover yourself mode 24/7. Management reviews are consistently a 2 or 3 out of 5 no matter what. If a team decides you aren’t in the group, management will put you on a “unofficial” PIP without telling you, in order to surprise you at a later date. Even if they are unfounded. Beware of possibility of negative backlash post launches. They will feel the need to assign blame ( such as for timelines or issues related to bugs). Regardless of performance or level of involvement. This is an enormous company with many large paths for career advancement. But micro management is rampant, leaving little room for doing the daily expectations of your actual role. This degrades your opportunities for career advancement.
