Unique company that was a successful startup - Anonymous employee Logos Employee Review

Thanks for calling us a startup! I still think of us that way, but it's been so long (23 years!) that few others do. Sorry about the lack of stock options: those are a tool of funded companies that hope to have an IPO or exit. We're here for the long haul, to build a lasting business (so far, so good!). And while I think that bodes well for us as a career option, it doesn't create the kind of exit you need for options, etc. Our goal is pay well enough that we're worth it, with the advantage of predictable compensation, rather than the "low pay and a lottery ticket" model you see in some other startups. I'd be happy to talk more about this at an "Ask Anything" meeting, or if you want to meet. We'll keep working on the communication, too!
