      Pros

      Truly pleasant work environment, with absolutely wonderful, hard working, like-minded colleagues. The employee benefits and perks are out of this world! It's so refreshing waking up and being excited to come to work

      Cons

      The interview process was long and grueling, but understandably so! The best of the best get to work at Gusto and hard work, even during the interview process, pays off.

      Pros

      There are so many pros to working at Gusto. First off the people who work here are all so smart and talented. There isn't one person I feel I can't come to and they wont be able give me an answer to my question. Everyone will so willing and open to helping with any and all problems you might be having even if that means they have to learn something new. Second there are so many opportunities to grow here. My manager along with many others are truly invested in making sure that I grow and get all the opportunities to try new things and learn more. The management team all goes through a lot of training which I think is amazing that the company invests to much in all its employees. Third is transparency, this is so important that upper management is able to really do this with the whole company. I have never had a CEO that on a regular schedule has open office hours that you can come and ask whatever questions are on your mind. He is open and honest with us about what values and future hopes and wants for the company.

      Cons

      I think that work life balance could be a little better. I think that we get so excited sometimes to do great work that we forget to take a break. In no way are we over worked but upper management could do a better job of communicating that we should be taking more personal time. I think that part of the work life balance issue is that the company at a whole is pretty young and not many of us are married or have kids which would change the dynamic.

      Pros

      Coworkers are really all great people- have not met anyone here that I would say I dislike. The company values are what really first drew me to the company and it has been really nice seeing that the leadership here really believes those values and makes decisions based on them.

      Cons

      Similar to working at other start ups, there is always work to do and always room for improvement. Many processes are still being defined and it can be stressful trying to resolve issues on the fly.
