Pros

- A fully-remote company - Good benefits (health insurance, 401k, wellness stipend, home office stipend) - Flexibility and accommodating work hours - Unlimited PTO - Limited travel required - Team (excluding CEO)

Cons

This month (July 2025), the company laid off a significant portion of the organization across multiple departments, affecting people at all levels. In the past year, there has also been turnover in senior leadership. The CEO was notoriously difficult to work with, more so than any other company I have ever worked for. In my experience, he had poor vision and direction for the company, ignoring the advice of his experienced leadership team and hyper-fixating on things that were not important to the company's success. If you cared about your work, you might find yourself frustrated with the poor CEO leadership. Without the talent that was recently let go, I am not optimistic about the organization's future. I found morale among colleagues to be especially low. The company was very stingy when it came to travel accommodations. The company retreats and work trips I went on felt like they were always booked as cheaply as possible, in lower-end hotels / AirBNBs, with the cheapest flights, and providing unrealistically low reimbursement stipends. Overall I would not recommend this place. I know the job market is tough now. If you are currently employed by another company and you are considering leaving your current job for a position at Jobscan, I would strongly caution against doing that. However, if you are currently unemployed and considering a position at Jobscan, it is better than being unemployed.

Pros

Jobscan is at a great point as a company with a lot of potential to do great things. The core product is 100% profitable and the company is not beholden to any outside investment, yet feels like a start-up with similar (strong) benefits. The core leadership team are newer to the company, but have obviously made a huge culture shift for the better. There is a ton of respect among everyone who works here and I'm constantly blown away by the intelligence and skills of my coworkers. Benefits and salaries are competitive and CEO is committed to improving them as the company grows. Work-life balance is great.

Cons

It's a smaller company, so it's not the kind of place you can expect to make significant position/title advancements until the company grows (which fortunately is the plan)

Pros

The talented team is great to work with and improvements, optimizations and new products are driving solid YoY growth. I love that I get to work at a company that helps people get jobs! The leadership team continues to bring in new talent that is helping to shape the future roadmap and some of the new products coming up are very exciting and will disrupt the job seeking industry. The products truly help job seekers get interviews faster and using ML and AI, optimizing resumes for each job a member applies for will only get better over time. The CEO is a genuinely a good person who personally cares about his team, which is hard to find these days.

Cons

Long term vision for the company isn't super clear yet but is starting to come into focus. There is still enough resources to address the huge opportunities in the space but company continues to grow the in house talent at a fast pace.
