Pros

- As other people mentioned, free food/drinks and daily catered lunches - Dog friendly - Paycheck clears and bank hasn't bounced anything back yet

Cons

I've worked for a lot of companies and this place is by far the most dysfunctional, toxic and anxiety inducing place I've ever worked for. Similar to other reviews, there is absolutely ZERO job security and everyone here is fighting to just keep their jobs. The result is that there's an over-abundance of backstabbing, politics which contributes to a general unorganized, chaotic and unprofessional environment. The leadership is very weak and they provide zero direction and strategy for the teams. C-level execs are talentless, self-serving egomaniacs whose top priority is ensuring their pockets are filled at any expense. Good luck if you think they have your best interests in mind. The CPO, CMO and VPs are all clueless and have no vision beyond a two-week sprint. Very disappointing given their collective pedigrees and work experience. Product and Marketing dept. seem to be revolving doors as I've seen more than 10 people come and go within the past few months alone. Majority are fired while the rest leave after a short stint. Some of the folks that leave are very talented and it's unfortunate the company cannot retain talent. Although it may seem “cool” to work for a place like Weedmaps, you should avoid at all costs. I’m surviving here one day at a time trying to lay low and stay out of the mess.

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.
