Pros

Nope. Trust me- don't apply here.

Cons

The Weedmaps CEO has to be the biggest piece of human garbage in corporate America. Absolutely no regard for the health and welfare of his employees, continues to pile on responsibility while taking away perks. Two attractive things of the company was maternity leave and “Re-Up Fridays,” where we had one Friday off each month. He took away our maternity leave and Re-Up Fridays, and when asked why- you will not believe the audacity of this guy: He says, (paraphrasing) “When I found out about that I cancelled it right away. You can come in the office on Saturdays and work with me, and if you need to be coddled you can find somewhere else to work.” It’s recorded, and if I can find a way to post it I most certainly will. What. A. Jerk. And oh by the way, this piece of work drives a Bentley that we all bust our backs to pay for him to drive. So yeah, if I made that kind of money I’d be coming in on Saturdays too. Speaking with my peers, probably 90% of them are interviewing for other jobs, simply because the leadership is toxic. Stay away from this company at all costs.

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.
