Pros

It's clear that the vast majority of employees deeply care about supporting small businesses. The vision and mission of the company is not something that's a talking point, it's truly a focus area that everyone is executing on. While all companies have challenges, Gusto is overall a fantastic company to work for. Benefits and work life balance are spectacular (minus 401k match) and high performers have a lot of great career advancement opportunities.

Cons

It's pretty easy for low performers to stick around longer than they should. Cash compensation could be more competitive. No 401k match.

Pros

The company is very balanced between work and life. All leads (at the moment) are inbound.

Cons

Hybrid environment is weird. itd down town and you don't feel safe, and it costs a lot. they do have a "reimbursement" but its pre taxed and taken out. Pay is way below average. even for inbound leads. No incentive to really overperform. you get a LOT of leads. but over 50% are actually fake/trash and the company doesn't seem to care. Only path forward is to a call center environment that isn't even real selling. its basically customer support.
