Pros

able to work from home

Cons

low salary despite very high productivity and accuracy targets, management handpicks and grooms people to promote and will not give opportunity for growth when your ideas differ from theirs, product is buggy and despite constant bug reports and feedback, it never seems to get fixed

Thank you for taking the time to provide this feedback, and for sharing your frustrations around compensation and promotions. We are investing heavily this year in building clear performance expectations, developing manager training to ensure these expectations are communicated clearly, increasing transparency around compensation, and on some teams creating leveling structures to promote growth. This is a process that takes several cycles to build to ensure it is fair and equitable. We are always looking to hear more from our teams to make sure this resonates with employees. If you want to share any perspective, please reach out to the People Team.

Pros

Really enjoyed my coworkers, they were super flexible on account of being fully remote, and the work was interesting

Cons

Got laid off along with around 1/4th or 1/5th of the company. They did not do it in a very professional manner. Locked me out of all accounts at 9am. Supposedly they sent an email to my personal account with some information about the layoffs but I did not receive it, so I didn't know what was going on until I got a meeting invite titled "Exit Meeting" to my personal email to meet with the CTO in 10 minutes. I also never got the opportunity to talk to my manager. I'm sure it is difficult to do layoffs as a remote company in general, but they did not handle it particularly well.

Thank you for your review. Your feedback is fair - both in terms of what you appreciated about working at Picnic, and what you didn't, given your specific experience during the layoff.
