Pros

remote work opportunities, decent product, smart engineers

Cons

This company had red flags from day 1. Extremely toxic environment which was told to be " normal start up culture". Leadership is non -existent, favoritism is obvious. Management applauds workers who stay up working until 10-11pm, giving them shout outs on slack. Instawork really disappointed when they Furloughed their employees. They charged furloughed employees each over $800 for a conference they had attended months before ( employees were told charges were being taken care of by Instawork). Instawork withheld money from many employees and changed the sales quota month over month to not pay employees their earnings. The company does not stand by any of their values. I am grateful to no longer be working for this company.

Thank you for providing this feedback. Like many companies, COVID-19 affected us and we had to make the hard decision to furlough and part ways with some valued employees. We try to communicate, as much as we can, why and how decisions were made. Based on your feedback, we understand how it feels unfair and that we will do better going forward. Lastly to clarify, the $800 was a mistake made by a conference vendor, which they quickly reversed. Quotas are adjusted to reflect staffing seasonality so that the majority of reps can hit quota. Thanks again for taking the time to leave this review. We wish you the best in your career.

Pros

You get to spend a lot of time dancing around like a monkey for these guys.And if you like monkeys, I guess that's a pro

Cons

There are app allows you to do absurd things. Because they don't have faith in people. And then they discriminate against you in ways which is federally illegal. But they don't care, because you'll continue to talk to AI. And when AI doesn't know what to say, it just starts repeating itself like a broken record. This app it needs updated
