Pros

None - you have a job, Thats about it.

Cons

It used to be great - colleagues were supportive, and other teams were accessible, supportive, and collaborative. But now staff are being let go without fault, their roles are either not backfilled or they are filled in India - cheaper wages. Teams are understaffed and stretched - there is no sense of job security and growth is non-existent. Rumors are swirling that the company is going to be sold.

Pros

Fully remote working with flexibility (dependent on your direct management). Being a small cog in a big machine has its perks.

Cons

The classic private equity/venture capitalist cycle. Talks big game about looking after its employees but once the ticker runs down they take part in rapid and ruthless offshoring to polish the numbers. If you're Queer (or any other minority) also be aware that the higher ups have a track record of complying in advance with US governmental shenanigans.

Thank you for sharing your perspective and for your years of dedication to our mission. We value the insights of team members who’ve been with us through different phases of growth and change. We’re proud of the flexibility and remote-first culture we’ve built, and we recognize that consistency in experience may vary depending on team structures and leadership styles. We’re actively working to ensure that flexibility and support are felt more uniformly across the organization through programs like global manager training and our CultureShape learning series, which explores connection, understanding and leadership across teams and regions. We’re committed to fostering a culture where team members feel seen, heard, and supported and, in turn, can show the same level of care to our community.

Pros

Renumeration was just okay. Compensation just a little bit above standards

Cons

Management style is extremely toxic — characterized by micromanagement, a lack of empathy, and an overall hostile approach that undermines team morale and personal growth. Leadership often fosters fear rather than support, creating an unhealthy work environment.
