Where design goes to die

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

• good salary • plentiful but worthless RSU grants as the company has no plans to go public

Cons

• design is run by yes people and sycophants. If you are not from the inner circle, you are reviled and distrusted. Good luck getting anything done. • toxic leadership that throws their people under the bus instead of supporting them • gusto leadership has shiny object syndrome. Instead of making core capabilities unbeatable, they spread themselves too thin into multiple revenue streams and create terrible experiences that suck for everyone. • visual design is dated and tacky but good luck trying to update anything without ten thousand review processes and a fat “no” at the end to make anything better
