Pros

Good benefits and really nice people. Office is decent and feeling of the office is very much a family. Good unlimited time off policy. I really enjoy working with many of the people I work with on a regular basis. Great work life balance. Great to be part of a company that is growing as fast as we are. CEO is very smart and when focused can be a great leader.

Cons

Definitely not top tier talent and it is very clear many senior people have position because of relationships and not skill. Very fast growing but that means weakness in leadership is showing more and more. Way too much focus on friends and partying then results or who is actually getting results. Pay is low to very low for most positions.

Pros

Very supportive managers and a fun, highly collaborative team. The department fosters an environment where ideas are openly shared and opportunities for improvement are discussed constructively without toxicity. Truly the best company I’ve worked for so far.

Cons

The interview process was somewhat lengthy, and salary discussions were not entirely consistent.

Pros

It was okay before the favoritism and gender pay gaps

Cons

There is a lot of favoritism. When I found out I was making far less than a male coworker in the same role with less years of experience, they did nothing to rectify the situation. Also, the CEO is far too involved in Product and dictates rather than collaborates
