Pros

Flexibility (unlimited PTO, remote/hybrid), autonomy over work / schedule, interesting/energetic people (excluding exec-level), strong brand, company is growing, decent compensation

Cons

Benefits are lacking for a small company (e.g., healthcare costs & coverage, maternity/paternity leave). Executive leadership is young/inexperienced and are constantly changing their minds/direction but have seriously deep-seeded issues. From layoffs to firing, they seek a specific type of person & performance which is terrible for diversity - they make constant org changes to accommodate their lives and justify as if it's a business decision. Culture is toxic like 'if you're not with us, you're against us' (and subsequently fired or forced out which have seen happen more times than necessary over the past year). Current leadership team is not equipped to growing the company the way it needs to be. Don't be fooled by inflated compensation - it's not worth the risk. Don't be fooled - just join a different company with growth ambitions and leaders that know what they're doing / care about their people. The only thing leaders at Ruggable care about is their own egos & agendas and proving that they're important vs. their teams being happy & cared for.

Pros

The company offers a fast-paced work environment where employees can gain broad experience and take ownership of important projects. Some teams work well together, and employees often have the chance to improve processes and solve real operational problems. Benefits are competitive, and the casual work environment may appeal to some employees.

Cons

Career growth opportunities are limited, and advancement paths are not always clear. Employees may take on more responsibility without receiving a promotion, title change, or matching pay. Priorities can shift often, and teams are sometimes expected to meet high goals without enough staffing, planning, or system support. Communication and accountability can vary across departments. The overall experience depends heavily on the employee’s manager and leadership team.
