Pros

1. The cannabis industry is interesting, ever changing, and challenging. 2. One Friday off per month perk 3. Decent benefits package 4. Talented rank and file, great people to work with.

Cons

Absolutely unorganized, short sighted, deeply inexperienced Sr. Leadership and dysfunctional C-Suite. Turnover is extremely high and there are zero consistent documentation practices. Constantly dropping initiatives and projects, months of work to pick them back up and redo research, analysis, etc etc. Everything is a priority and nothing is a priority. There is just no prioritization, for example it's mid quarter and there is still no prioritization plan shared with the employees. Leaders do not communicate, no transparency or guidance on company direction. No shared goals. Very silo'd, every body working on their own thing without engaging other teams. Poorly planned and executed re-orgs at least once a year, often suffering the consequences long after the fact. Weirdly petty leaders, you may honestly lose your job because you work for someone the big boss doesn't like. 0 / Zero career development opportunities and very limited upward mobility. If you want to grow your career, this is not the place to do it. No annual raises, frequently changing bonus structure. Requests for raises have to be reviewed personally by C-Suite. They will fight tooth and nail to make sure employees get low performance ratings to avoid bonus payout. Cost of living will definitely outpace your salary. No consistent performance tracking or very individual tracking depending on role/department. Goal posts move a lot. Big tech defecit, flimsy operations, and all the rest ensures little to no stability. Benefits specific, their 401K match and RSU managed through a small firm that rarely responds, very literally infosec and IT staff refused to sign up until they fixed their insecure website. If you don't mind being under a lot of stress and just need the paycheck, go for it. But plan for a short stint.

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.
