Pros

Many of the people are really great to work with (particularly most of the exec staff), and it's great being a part of something that is unique and gives back to individuals so much. The work can be difficult, which I like, and everyone puts in a lot of work and effort.

Cons

Turo is still often stuck in the start-up phase, at times, which is likely connected to how quickly we grew in a short time; communication between departments (sometimes within departments) can be very difficult, and need-to-know information sometimes gets lost as a result. This makes some departments suffer a lot more than others. Many of the employees don't know what other employees or even departments are working on, and it sometimes feels like we as an entire company don't have a unified goal. I've been here a long time, and this has been a constant. I feel like these are growing pains, and I hope we can get through them.

Pros

I’ve been at Turo for over seven years, and that alone says a lot about how I feel about this place. I’ve learned so much here. I’ve grown as a professional, taken on real responsibility, made mistakes, learned from them, and been given the opportunity to improve and keep moving forward. This environment builds confidence and loyalty. The work is challenging in a good way. It has pushed me to think bigger and solve meaningful problems, and when you make progress, you can actually see the impact, especially on the government relations team. The people truly make it special, from the CEO to the CLO to my VP and Director. There’s strong collaboration, a sense of ownership, and a team that genuinely cares. I’m proud to be here and excited about what we’re continuing to build.

Cons

Like any growing company, it hasn’t always been smooth. We’ve been through ups and downs together, and that has built trust, but it hasn’t been without difficulty. We’re back in a hybrid model now, and while we’ve adapted well, change takes adjustment. We’ve also experienced departures and layoffs, which was tough because we lost some really good apples. That part was not easy. But even through those moments, the company has continued to evolve, and change has brought new opportunities and fresh energy.
