Leadership doesn't care about liquidity!

Pros

The people at Gusto are one-of-a kind. Everyone is humble and kind.

Cons

Leadership team does *not* care about liquidity for current or former employees. There are a large number of former employees with options that are set to expire, and the leadership team is doing *nothing* to help.

Pros

remote if you're not near an office. if you make it 5 years you get a month long sabbatical. some of the managers are nice, but a lot of people are phony and drink the corporate kool aid

Cons

They added an ai stipend and in an AMA basically said "if you don't like it, leave lol" as if that's a thing we can easily do they also addressed employee's AI environmental concerns by using word salad to say "we don't care" This isn't the first time they've responded to feedback with what can be boiled down to "deal with it" They also treat hourly employees as 2nd class citizens with less benefits than salaried employees
