Pros

Savvy is solving a real and valuable problem for financial advisors who want to go independent. The product/market fit feels strong, and there is a clear sense that the company is gaining traction. The engineering culture is great, with thoughtful design, high standards, and a focus on doing things the right way. The people are smart, collaborative, and genuinely care about their work. The in-office culture is one of the best parts of the company, there is real camaraderie, and everyone eats lunch together every day we are in. It feels close-knit and energized.

Cons

The company is still figuring out its structure, especially around product leadership. All PMs report to the CTO, which can make priorities feel more execution-focused than strategic. Ritik, the CEO, is very growth driven, which is great for the company’s trajectory, but at times it can feel a bit transactional or demotivating when that focus overshadows individual recognition. Benefits are also on the weaker side compared to other startups, especially healthcare (I’m spending $$$$)

Pros

- Everyone on the team is exceptionally friendly, and wants everyone to succeed. It's a very professional environment. - Lots of transparency in our operations. - Exciting "upcoming startup" vibes. - Free lunch is a great perk. - They ring a little bell whenever we land a new client and the whole office cheers. Very exciting!

Cons

High velocity, very tech forward, and very excited about AI enablement. To me these are reasons why I chose Savvy in the first place, but if they rub you the wrong way, it's probably not a great fit.

Pros

- Exceptional autonomy. You're trusted with meaningful, high-impact work early rather than being confined to a narrow role. - Direct access to leadership. Decisions happen quickly, and it's possible to influence product, research, and company direction regardless of title. - Broad scope. It's an excellent environment for people who enjoy wearing multiple hats across product, investments, analytics, engineering, and operations. - Smart, ambitious teammates who genuinely want to build something differentiated. - Fast execution. Good ideas can become real products or processes in days rather than months. - Significant room for career growth if you're proactive and comfortable creating your own roadmap.

Cons

None of these are serious cons and instead are the byproduct of a startup: - Processes are still evolving, so priorities can shift frequently. - Documentation and institutional knowledge lag the pace of execution. - Success often depends on self-direction; there isn't always a predefined playbook. - Resource constraints mean individuals may own more work than they would at a larger firm. - Cross-functional coordination can occasionally become ad hoc as the company scales.
