Pros

- 23 days of PTO (not unlimited) - They provide lunch if you work in office - people you meet are great - decent benefits that kick in right away

Cons

- turn over is high - documentation is outdated by almost 2 years - they care more about AI then their human customer support - they expect a lot out of you from KPIs but are not understand things are way more complex than now due to AI answering all the easy questions - management is very corporate and clearly do not care about their team or who stays - this role has been on linkedin for 1 year - no growth - some managers should not be managers and show be this role before they can become managers - be prepared to be frustrated and under paid every day - they told us we couldnt be black, queer, etc once you step into work - support is the last team they care about and prefer to throw big events for sales but not for the people that help people who would like to speak to a human instead of AI. - if you speak up against management they will fire you and blame it on KPIs but if you look at their KPIs they were over performing and never on a performance improvement plan

Pros

One of the biggest positives is the opportunity to work on meaningful, high-impact projects. The company provides access to the right tools, resources, and support needed to do great work. As a senior engineer, I feel trusted to think critically about problems, challenge assumptions, and help reframe solutions when needed. Stakeholders and the broader business are receptive to feedback, which creates a strong environment for collaboration and problem-solving. When blockers come up, my manager and the organization move quickly to remove them. Overall, it’s a fast-moving, high-trust environment where strong engineers can make a real impact.

Cons

The pace is very fast, which can be a challenge depending on how someone prefers to work. Priorities, tools, and ways of working can change quickly, and it requires a willingness to adapt, learn, and rewire how you approach problems. For people who prefer slower, more predictable environments, the pace may feel intense at times. However, for those who are comfortable with change and motivated by momentum, it can also be one of the most rewarding aspects of the company.

Pros

Founders are still involved and will help on top accounts. Competitive compensation. Good breakfast and lunch. Access to the resources one needs, with no apparent shortage of money.

Cons

Silent layoffs. Lack of trust in the employees by leadership. Senior management is poor at defining and communicating expectations. The fast pace of hiring, changing titles and roles, frequently adjusting strategies and shifting ICPs leads to regular confusion. Very poor professional development (zero for many). Investor interests have taken a higher priority than the employees. A once team-first culture has weakened, as the company becomes more corporate, with the early company value of 'We go further together' being eliminated and never replaced with anything about working strong as a team, which is another sign of the diminishing culture.
