Pros
Everyone leaves at 5, or sooner if they can. Run for the exits!
Cons
If you’ve recently been laid off or are desperate for a job, then you will be able to clear your low bar for success by taking a job at Rocket Lawyer. You will receive a regular paycheck for your services, and most positions do not require working late nights or weekends. If you expect to flourish in your career, accelerate your professional growth, receive any sort of mentorship, or feel pride in your work, then you should continue your job search. Leadership is nonexistent. Within my first year, almost all of tech leadership vanished, apologizing on their way out for leaving the engineers behind to fend for themselves. A promising new CTO was hired to turn things around, and he too left in a matter of months. More departures followed, and the engineering team at this “tech” company became a skeleton crew trying to keep things afloat with loads of tech debt and an outdated stack. I was shuffled around to four different teams during my employment, and not one team completed a meaningful project. Just before a feature was set to launch, it would get shelved by a c-level exec. I’ve seen other reviews that include too many unflattering details get removed. There are dozens of cautionary tales I wish I could share. Suffice to say, please be careful. Join this company at your own risk.
