Pros
- Decent benefits - Decent tech stack, a few things to learn - Generally nice people
Cons
- Hypocrisy: management keeps yapping about culture and how its the cornerstone of the company. They also run quarterly surveys just to ignore the results, do absolutely nothing about it while coming up with lame excuses to genuine feedback. Instead, they point fingers at other companies without ever acknowledging the Rokt's culture is toxic and outright depressing. - Nobody is ever safe: entire teams get axed and disbanded over night just because the management wants to, A bunch of people are leaving / being made redundant and more interviewing. - Bad work-life balance: frequent on-call issues (not paid on-call lol), you either grab and deliver big pieces or you might end up PICed/PIPed because your impact is low. - IPO has been "next year" for the last 4-5 years: constant lies about when it's gonna happen "if it ever happens". I wouldn't buy that stuff if a recruiter tries to sell you on this, go get real cash. On a side note, when reading a review, pay attention to the number of upvotes. This is how you know its geniune and actually reflects how people feel.
