Pros

I spent the last 2 and a half years of my professional career at Weedmaps. In that time I've worked on multiple large scale features for Android. All the people I've interacted with were wonderful and very happy to help if you needed it. The Android team is absolutely amazing in everyway. As a heads up to future Android devs applying for a position on the team: I 100% would recommend it. Everyone is super knowledgeable and very open to new ideas and ways of doing things. The team cohesion combined with technical knowledge on that team is probably the best that I've been on in my professional career. I can't speak for the teams that I've never been on but I will say that of the different squads/teams that I was in I worked with fun and knowledgeable people that made it enjoyable to go to work everyday. The managers that I've had and interacted with were wonderful people, very hands-off and trust you and your abilities to get the job done ( no micro-managing here).

Cons

I can't say I've really had a negative experience while working at Weedmaps. They could probably be more prompt when it comes time for yearly review of compensation but I know they're actively working on a better process for this.

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.
