      Pros

      Been here over a year now. If you are a high performer, you can really do anything you want here - more ownership, interesting work, shift in role. Lots of opportunity for folks in more "entry level" roles to transition to a different part of the business. It's nice to see people grow a career here. Interesting work, and our tech / product teams are able to get close to our merchants. Very data driven environment. Great place to "cut your teeth" if you are interest in entrepreneurship and also want to be a more rigorous business thinker. Support from leadership to have associates go start their own thing, including a new biannual pitch competition. Genuinely enjoy my coworkers and everyone I have met here. Nice to work with, and a lot of really smart people as well.

      Cons

      Some classic growth-phase pains. Moving too quickly but not getting all the right parts of the org aligned, having a lot on your plate. Sales team needs to continue to modernize - operate more like a SaaS / tech-forward sales team.

      Thank you for the wonderful positive and constructive feedback. We value a growth mindset at Koalafi and agree that we need to improve at ensuring that communication across our organization doesn’t suffer when we are testing, learning, and often pivoting. Without context, our team runs the risk of not feeling empowered. Thank you also for the leadership feedback on providing the “what”, but ensuring our teammates get the growth opportunity to discover the “how”. We will take this feedback to heart and continue to look for opportunities to improve so that our associates can experience the life-changing growth experience that we promised them when they joined. Thank you, Boomer Muth, President

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      1) Meetings are brief and content dense. Scrum done extremely well. 2) Unlimited snack and drinks at Arlington WeWork. 3) Solid encouragement of 9-5 of work no pushing to due overtime unless desired 4) Team lunch paid usual for on Fridays 5) Great place for mid-level engineers to learn at their own speed, I was given about 3 months to learn parts of the stack I was missing (a great stack, bleeding edge) and also to learn the domain.

      Cons

      1) Slack politics was a bit out of hand but ultimately resolved properly. 2) Not enough direction at times on what to work on which has pros and cons. 3) Onboarding was inefficient, didn't get access to multiple Repos for several weeks nor a comprehensive explanation of the domain.

      Thank you for the feedback! Appreciate the positive words on it being a great place for software engineers to work, learn, and grow – we agree! Regarding the opportunity to improve onboarding, as you say we are aware and working hard to add to our standard on-boarding assets to make it as easy as possible to get up to speed. This is of particular importance to us as we are continuing to grow at a fast pace. Thanks, Jim Kresge, Chief Technology Officer
