Pros

Fun product to build, cool tech and good base pay. Most engineers are quite approachable and willing to help.

Cons

No 401k matching, despite employees frequently raising this request in company meetings. Benefits are also below industry standard compared to other companies in the ticketing marketplace. A significant cultural shift has affected morale. Previously, employees were motivated by a shared sense of mission and enthusiasm for the company’s growth; now, many feel pressured to work hard to avoid sudden job cuts, which have affected some valued team members. SEVERE issues with ego and politics within the engineering team impact collaboration and morale. Career progression feels non-existent, with many new full-time hires at senior levels taking on routine tasks, while contractors are used in roles that were previously held by full-time engineers. Navigating office politics seems essential for advancement within the company.

Pros

Remote work; great perks with employee credits; off-sites

Cons

Management has ambitious goals but often lacks a practical approach and commitment to implementing necessary improvements. Additionally, accountability is limited, particularly among those closely connected to the Founder/CEO, whose influence can shape business strategy—even when it might not be the best course for growth; the company had multiple C-suite "walk away for personal reasons" but pretty clear there is a lack of alignment at the top and were ousted
