Pros

Jump out of bed the mornings super keen to go to work for many reasons! Challenging, interesting and rewarding work, super talented and 'can do' attitude people, and fantastic office spaces which are privilege to work in. Particularly excited by the myriad of opportunities for career growth in what is a fast growing global company.

Cons

None that I can think of.

Pros

Xero has a great product and a lot of very passionate employees who work very hard for their customers.

Cons

The executive leadership at Xero is creating a toxic, backstabbing culture that promotes yes-men at the expense of honest dialogue. It's impossible to make decisions at the company, and multiple rounds of layoffs are leaving all employees shell shocked and fearful. Marketing teams are under-resourced while more demands are constantly being placed on teams to do more. When constraints are communicated, employees are blamed for them, rather that listened to. Multiple colleagues have said the same thing. Additionally, management has instituted a 'rank and yank' policy where everyone is graded on a forced curve, where the bottom quarter are immediately put on a PIP.
