Pros
Working at Metromile has been a dream start-up job for me with incredibly smart and talented co-workers all driven to disrupting an industry. It’s the place to be if you like being in a high, growth, fast past environment in solving complex problems in a team environment, being creative and seeing immediate impact to the business based on the results of your work. There is no lack of opportunity here and you are only limited by your ambitions. Management is transparent and honest even when they mess up, with critical self-reflection to help everyone continually improve and make the company successful. Good management team all of whom are very accessible and down to earn with no egos other than trying to make the company successful. The company is growing quickly and I can’t wait to see where the company is a year from now. Great benefits including free lunches, snacks, drinks (including beer), outings and unlimited vacation.
Cons
It’s a start-up environment and there's a lot of work to be done so everyone works really hard. Management does believe in work-life balance but you’ll see people in the office late every night. The company is still working on putting in some process so at times things can feel a little chaotic but things are moving in the right direction.
