Pros

Real fun people, family type feel, flexible.

Cons

Sometimes too much flexibility and relaxed turns in to doing zero work at all. Product as most reviews here say needs big help and diversification in the FI space. The technology is boring and old and doesn't get used, usage numbers are worrying. Management needs to be replaced with experienced leaders who have an open mindset. My prediction is that Sensibill will crash at some point soon.

Thank you for your feedback. I’m happy you had a positive experience interacting with our team during your tenure although it is a shame that you disagree on the value prop of our product to FIs and their end customers. We certainly do believe that receipt management solves an important job-to-be-done for an underserved customer segment even if it may not appear flashy from the outside. With respect to your advice on product and leadership, we’ve recently brought on a talented and proven VP Product, Amber Foucault. She’s built strategic and innovative products countless times and, in her six months here, she has been shaking up the technology team for the better. I do hear your point regarding diversification of our product portfolio, and I agree with that advice. Already under Amber’s leadership, we’ve begun to expand our data product portfolio, while also building and testing concepts in adjacent spaces, which makes me quite enthusiastic that the diversification that you are recommending is on its way!

Pros

The people I worked with were some of the best people I've come across in the industry so far. Self directed, creative and humble. They were very supportive and I learned a lot from them.

Cons

I think the biggest con is the shaky product market fit, but if the team keeps at it something will stick. One important ingredient for the company to succeed would be to control data acquisition pipeline and not depend upon partners in the b2b spectrum as a sole mechanism.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience at Sensibill. And we completely agree; Sensibillians are incredibly talented people! With regards to market fit, Sensibill is passionate about and excited by growth in clients who are solving small business pain points, and the hand we’ve had in assisting them in that space.

Pros

I've worked at Sensibill for almost two years now and it has been such a refreshing experience. Everyone is working towards the same goal and that cohesiveness makes for a great working environment. I've worked at other places where people are playing politics games and trying to get ahead of each other but at Sensibill it's understood that the way we move forward is by doing what's best for the company and our clients. We also have some great talent and I feel like I can trust my peers skillsets but also I can trust that their intentions are for the best and they want to help each other and the company succeed. I also wanted to call out how impressed I am with the diversity at Sensibill. You will rarely see this company waving a flag about how diverse they are but they live it. We have people from all walks of life and representation from so many different cultures. But the most important thing is that Sensibill strives to empower each employee and encourage them to use their experience and bring their own ideas to the table.

Cons

Sensibill is a startup in a niche market. There's a lot of obstacles to overcome in the industry and limited resources and startup grinding can make things difficult. We have been expanding our product line which is great but after having had just one product for so long it takes time to build up the right momentum.

We have a team full of subject-matter experts that are well-aligned and love to collaborate, and we’re all passionately working towards the same goal to help everyone achieve financial wellness. Our team has varied cultural backgrounds, work histories, and personal experiences, and this makes us more creative, inspired, and informed. Thank you for your feedback and contribution thus far!
