Was a dream job, but the thing about dreams is that you have to wake up eventually. - Salesforce Developer Weedmaps Employee Review

Pros

This was a dream job for approximately three months. Great hiring experience, great onboarding, easing into work so I could learn the systems. I got to see the impact of my role right away. Great people, at least when I worked here. Best team I ever worked with, in fact. Brilliant minds who came together to work at a company that HAD values.

Cons

Everything is entirely ego-driven. They fired all of the female directors but one on the same day. Lay-offs every 3-5 weeks the entirety of the time I worked there. They changed the mission statement and fired the policy department. They slashed nearly 30% of our PTO (10 days) after using "re-up Fridays" as a gimmick for hiring for over a year. They slashed parental leave for everyone except for birthing parents, which they still cut. The stock is worthless, rendering a large part of salary moot. Rejecting candidates for petty reasons. Unclear job functions. No chance of mentorship or growth, despite repeated promises.

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.
