Pros

- Employees at Osano are good people and good at what they do - Data privacy is a great area to be involved in - Comp and benefits are solid - The company is a public benefit corporation and operates with high integrity - It's fully remote and does it well

Cons

Policies are more rigid than at other SaaS startups. A couple of examples: work hours are inflexible and employees can't create new Slack channels. On the other hand, if you thrive under more structure and clearer expectations, this will be a good thing.

Pros

Remote work, paid on time.

Cons

This organization is in a state of continual decline, largely due to ineffective leadership and a lack of clear strategic direction. Decisions often appear reactive rather than thoughtful, resulting in constant shifts in priorities, confusion across teams, and little confidence in the company's future. Leadership frequently seems disconnected from the realities employees face, and there is little evidence that feedback from staff is genuinely considered or acted upon. Turnover is exceptionally high, with talented employees regularly leaving for more stable and supportive environments. Rather than addressing the underlying causes of attrition, management often treats departures as routine, creating a revolving-door culture that further weakens morale, productivity, and institutional knowledge. Perhaps most concerning is the workplace culture. Employees are strongly discouraged—either directly or indirectly—from voicing concerns, challenging decisions, or providing honest feedback. There is a widespread perception that speaking up can negatively impact one's standing within the organization, leading many people to remain silent even when they identify serious issues. As a result, problems persist, accountability is limited, and opportunities for improvement are routinely missed.
