Pros

great opportunity for starting a career in sales.

Cons

The number 1 objective is profits over people and it shows. Employees are not well cared for and every single benefit we used to have is gone. Very clear division between actual employees and management. Very toxic culture in sales. You eat what you kill and there is no real team mentality.

Thank you for this review. I’m glad that you see SmartAsset as a great place to begin a career in Sales. Now, as I’m glad to see that you’re still with us, I very much hope that I hope we can show you that it’s a great place to build a successful career in Sales long-term. During my time here, I’ve seen exceptional attention to fostering a positive employee experience; e.g. a very team-driven process of mapping out our company values back in 2019, continuing to invest in strong employee benefits in recent years, and bringing on a strong new Chief People Officer just this year. Your perception of the specific team culture in Sales is particularly alarming for me and most certainly not the team dynamic we’re looking to foster. I hope that you’ll feel comfortable reaching out to me 1:1 and that I’ll hear from you soon. Thanks again, Matt Mason, VP of Sales.

Pros

After spending years at high-growth startups, the biggest thing I appreciate about SmartAsset is stability. The company still has the pace and energy of a growing tech company, but leadership tends to be thoughtful and measured about decisions rather than chasing every shiny object. Remote work is real here — not the “remote but everyone actually lives in one city” type. People are spread across the country and it works well. There’s a lot of autonomy and trust to manage your own schedule and work style. Compensation is strong if you perform, and the company has been steadily growing the business rather than overextending itself. Some people might look at the benefits and think they’re not as flashy as big tech or some startups like to advertise. But personally I’d take a company that is growing profitably and building something sustainable over one that offers tons of perks but ends up doing layoffs when the market shifts.

Cons

Benefits overall are solid, but I would love to see the 401(k) match grow over time. For a company centered around helping people make smart financial decisions, that’s one area that feels a little light compared to other places I’ve worked.

Thank you for sharing such a thoughtful perspective on your experience at SmartAsset. We’re glad to hear that the balance between growth and stability has stood out to you. Building a company that can grow sustainably while still maintaining the energy and opportunity of a tech environment is something we care deeply about. We also appreciate the feedback around benefits and leadership engagement. As the company continues to grow, we’re always evaluating how our programs evolve and how we create more opportunities for leaders across the organization to contribute to strategic conversations.
