Pros

Benefits are great, fly whole company to Vegas for retreat, free lunch, , trip every year to a sporting event, budget for conferences

Cons

Fast expansion through hiring and buy outs has led to process and organisational issues at times. Young company leads to a bit of a bro-culture at times. A lot of people have drunk a bit too much of the Kool Aid, if you don't then you're made to feel like an outsider. There definitely is some pressure around the unlimited vacation policy to not take time off.

Pros

-Positive Business Outlook: Users love Hudl and it's a very forward-thinking product that has a great place in the future -Values-led culture/norms: People are at the heart of how we operate -Very talented overall workforce: Our bar on hiring is super high and performance management process works if there are clear underperformers. -People genuinely get along with each other for the moist part - far better than most organizations with huge silo walls.

Cons

-Decision-making bottleneck at exec-team level with some pretty hands on leaders in the weeds on too much. -Some teams are quite top-heavy, a poor micro-culture on the team, and have less accountability than they should (Finance/Accounting specifically) -We can settle on talent in key roles that is in a key hub where we have an office since less remote hiring is approved.
