Pros
*Great management: Gusto has a really robust management support and training program, with ongoing work groups for managers to continue learning from each other. Management philosophy can make or break the work experience at a company, and Gusto has honed an excellent philosophy of self-awareness, driving the business, and building the team. Managers here truly empower their teams!
* Unique position: Gusto has an powerful and thoughtful product, and is in a really great position to improve the way MANY people work and run businesses.
* Meaningful benefits: The benefits are clearly rooted in Gusto's values, and create a really supportive and inclusive environment. Some great examples: inclusive fertility benefits, a "Fly Away" ticket on your first anniversary (that you have to use before your second- Gusto actually wants you to take this vacation!), catered lunch with great options for different diets/allergies, opt-in dinner (there's no pressure to work late, but you're covered if you do), and fully-covered health insurance for all employees.
* Thoughtful career development: Gusto has the best performance review process I've experienced, and managers value and promote career development throughout the year (not just right after your reviews).
Cons
* No 401K matching (used to have it, then it was temporarily discontinued), but it's expected to come back in the near future
* Gusto is going through some expected growing pains; we're growing fast and maturing in how we operate. Embracing change can be hard, and the start-up environment isn't for everyone.
