Pros

They're pretty bad at understanding the market, so you can increase your salary by a lot, especially if you come from blue chip companies or prestigious universities. There's a lot of smart people that work there. The product is really good.

Cons

There's ZERO work/life balance They will retaliate and fire you if you are insubordinate The benefits are expensive (which is funny given the product) They have monthly KPIs and if you don't hit them, they will fire you, even if you take a vacation Everyone there is fake happy. It's this really weird rah rah feeling when everyone is together with an underlying depression attached The nepotism and favoritism is blatant. This is the 4th time I've written a review, and the other 3 were taken down. Management asked us to write good reviews when I was there because of all the bad reviews. They really care about this stuff. It's just a really bad place to work, so be prepared. Accept the money and the stock, but understand that they will fire you for very, very little and work you to the bone. They were anti DEI well before Trump got in office. I guess you can say they're ahead of the curve!

Pros

I have only been at Rippling for a month at this point, but so far so good! The onboarding and training are top tier. Definitely the best and most in depth training I have gotten at a company. My manager is great and was also an IC at Rippling for a couple years before moving into management which I really like because they understand what it is like to be an account manager here. There seems to be a lot of opportunity for career growth here. I am definitely excited to be here!

Cons

Not really a con but you HAVE to be self sufficient here. People are willing to help but they are also very busy so it might be a while before you get a response to a question. It was an adjustment at first but I think it makes you a better employee. If you need hand holding probably not the job for you. I don't really have any true cons yet, but ask me again in 6 months lol.
