Pros

Worked directly with some amazing people, who wanted to commit 110% to the company. Dogs allowed on-site, got some free shoes, got to visit their HQ in Zurich(partially self-funded).

Cons

Higher level management does not provide the needed resources/employees to do your job well... or even come close. Started "in a backlog" and despite long hours and mandatory overtime(on salary, so this is all unpaid), only saw that backlog grow exponentially. Was told we were actively trying to add to the team, but saw people with professional-level Customer Service and running experience get turned down without specific reasoning. Due to constant backlog, customer interactions regularly begin with "apologies on the delay" and trying to de-escalate or manage customer disappointments. Expectation is essentially that a 40+(50-60...) hour work week is natural and "part of the fun," and we repeatedly received "disappointment" when we couldn't provide this overtime, or get the delayed work done in that time frame. Undefined "company culture" is noted as a cause for hiring/releasing folks, and commitment to that culture involves using your own lunchbreak to run/work out with the team. Work-life balance is not a factor for management, in favor of an expected over-worked commitment, perfectly defined in their slogan "never not On."

Pros

Lots of free shoes Very well intended people Culture with lots of great virtues Cool product, excellent marketing

Cons

All the free shoes squeak People lead with slide decks - heavy consulting culture Lots of virtue signaling I think they started off fast and agile and grew too fast and became a dinosaur who still genuinely thought it was agile. Most everyone in my team was unhappy. People felt they couldn’t express their true selves at work. I would not recommend it as a place to work.
