Pros

Retool has the exact right mix of product market fit, current talent, and deep pockets. The core concept was gold from the start and attracted a die hard fan base. I can’t really imagine a company I would rather work for. I feel guilty describing working at Retool to other people because the differences are so intense.

Cons

The team culture is likely to be vulnerable as we hyper scale. So far we’ve managed to recruit very well, optimizing for culture fit. There’s a strong need for employees to vocally embody Retool values as an example for new hires. Things are moving very fast though, and if push comes to shove this might get left behind.

Retool Response

We’re thrilled to hear you’re enjoying your experience at Retool. We’re working hard to recruit thoughtfully to maintain our strong culture. Thank you for taking the time to share!

Pros

Fast pace, with plenty of opportunity to work with modern tooling, supportive culture, and solid engineers

Cons

Retool’s in the middle of a transformation into the world of AI-driven app building and it’s caused its fair share of attrition. But, at least there’s strong buy-in across the company at this point

Pros

It’s hard to find a company that seems to genuinely care about their employees. Leadership and frontline listens if you explain context and present solutions to challenges. Sales org is strong. Solid partner strategy. Product teams leaned in and listening. Flexible and supportive work life balance. And a really interesting and exciting direction in term of product market fit. Good benefits.

Cons

Calendars get busy fast during the day. Lots of competing priorities because we’re trying to compete with an ever changing market.
