Pros

Benefits package is good. Lunch and snacks provided daily with a few concessions like coffee, or happy hours sprinkled in once or twice a quarter— although they feel more like consolation prices in place of actual compensation. Colleagues are great and honestly make the long days worth it — if you’re in a ‘clique.’ But only if you’re lucky to stay employed long enough to form any peer connections, and can avoid a target on your back for seemingly no reason at all. Resume brownie points at best.

Cons

Be ready to give 50–60 hour weeks for zero recognition and no progress toward ever-shifting, arbitrary targets. You’ll be operating with outdated, incomplete tools and processes, paired with little to no foundational training and virtually nonexistent ongoing support—all under a constant, underlying threat of being cut for seemingly no real reason. Data, both internal and external—is inconsistent at best and misleading at worst, making it nearly impossible to build real trust or credibility. Especially when you’re already trying to sell through an already damaged beyond repair industry reputation, compounded by questionable company decisions that frontline teams are left to explain (and apologize for.) Sales Enablement is effectively nonexistent. Feedback goes nowhere, concerns are ignored, and nothing meaningfully improves—neither for employees nor for clients. You’re expected to just push through dysfunction and make it work, and take the full responsibility and consequences on the client-facing side. Cross-functional teams are required to depend on each other to push anything forward, and all it is, is a bottlenecked mess. Constantly changing SOP’s without formal communication and every team is under-resourced and overextended, forced to rely on equally strained counterparts with no real infrastructure to support them—creating a cycle of frustration and burnout across the board. Constant periods of gutting 25-50% of sales, marketing, and support teams; the remaining already overworked teams are just expected to not only pick up the slack, but then train the new hires that essentially replaced the cut staff with no additional incentives or compensation, effectively creating unnecessary workload that provides no additional value or efficiencies for the org. Core Values? They have none. Unless it’s deceit, greed, manipulation, favoritism and sexual harassment, which is abundant here. This place is a walking HR nightmare to say the least. Looking forward to the future exposé documentary!

Pros

I have nothing but good things to say. I would have stayed in my role, but my wife got a job that required us to move.

Cons

None. The company is well on track for success.

Pros

I’ve read many of the reviews here from both current and former employees, and while I respect everyone’s individual experience, I can only speak to my own. Weedmaps is filled with incredibly smart, passionate people who genuinely care about the industry and the company’s success. It is absolutely a fast-paced and constantly evolving environment, but much of that comes with the nature of the cannabis industry itself. During my interview process, the teams were very transparent about the startup culture, the pace of change, and the level of adaptability expected. If you thrive in dynamic environments, enjoy solving problems creatively, and are comfortable moving quickly, Weedmaps can be a great place to grow. If you prefer highly structured environments with slower change, it may not be the right fit for you.

Cons

One area where I do agree with some of the feedback shared in other reviews is around company-wide communication and visibility from leadership. I would appreciate more insight into what different teams across Weedmaps are working toward, as well as a clearer understanding of the company’s long-term vision and direction. That said, I also understand that open forums can sometimes become overly focused on negativity, which can make productive communication more difficult. I’d still love to see more consistent opportunities for transparent updates and alignment across the organization.
