Stay away !!

Pros

Some good and knowledgeable folks.

Cons

I don’t know where to start: 1. No vision. They do not know where the company will be in the next 12 months. 2. They do not care for employees. They hire people even though they cannot afford them and lay them off in couple of months. 3. They don’t keep up promises. When you are hired they promise you a lot of things and also write it in your offer letter and none of them are honored . 4. No transparency. 5. Layoffs are very common. Probably twice a year. 6. Extremely rude management. They treat you like they are doing you a favor. 7. No bonuses or benefits. Not at all competent with other Bay Area startups. My advice is to stay away.

Pros

good benefits, good pay, good food, flexible hours if needed.

Cons

there's a lot. all the negative reviews below share real problems! The defensive responses by the official Kespry team on the reviews is a red flag in itself? HUGE lack of a proven product vision & roadmap by execs. so many cooks in the kitchen. secrecy, confusion, role stealing/coup attempts in a product/eng driven team - the company is running itself in circles. CEO/other execs can be inaccessible and not in touch, many are rude, and most are condescending and "holier than thou/I know best" people who have been here a while and have loud voices/access to management think they can guide the business based on overconfidence in their abilities and product capabilities - but instead it is failing fast. many people drink the kool-aid and don't really look at the biz competition, difficulties to sell the product, and internal culture problems. favoritism is evident, and no real transparent growth opps. lots of promotions are for no real reason, and others that are deserved are under-shared.
