Pros

- Legendary product-market fit and Labelbox is a hyper-growth company - Opportunity to work with a world-class team that is pushing the boundary of what is possible in the AI space. - Supportive culture - You get to work in the AI space and help enterprise companies get to production faster, like Airbnb, Warner Bros, Stryker, and more internally known companies - You can make a big impact in the company - People get promoted, so there is great career growth at the company - Ownership is given for projects, so the outcome is dependent on what you make of it - A true leader in the space where competitors are just copying what we are doing, and we win most deals from them - Well-positioned at becoming a multi-billion-dollar company

Cons

- It would be nice to have more social events at the company to meet people. - Hours can be long, just like any other hyper-growth startup - Hard to stand out when other people are also talented + driven

Pros

Intelligent, hard-working colleagues. Flexible working locations allowed.

Cons

Incredibly high turnover - often for little reason. I've seen people given projects that were obviously doomed to fail, work long hours getting them to succeed against all odds, and then getting fired because management didn't understand what the difficulty was in the first place. Every layer of management takes more pain from the layer above it and pushes it onto the people below them. As an IC, that means maximum pain for you. Expect to be blamed for things you couldn't have helped, and for higher ups to take credit for your work routinely. Revenue is down and companies that are much younger have surpassed Labelbox in almost every category. From my perspective, the issue is organizational, and cannot be fixed without changing the CEO - you can read the same reviews here, on Glassdoor, from literally 7 years ago now saying the same thing. Realistically, it's not going to happen, and the company is going to slowly spiral the drain until there 5 year old round of funding dries up and upper management takes whatever assets are left before leaving the corpse of another failed startup behind them. Don't work here.
