Nutshell reviews

- Work-life balance when wanting to grow - Needs more females both in management and in development - Typical stresses when working for a startup - High Turnover - Lack of processes The downsides to Nutshell was that to grow you had to put in a lot outside of work, both money and timewise which makes balancing work and life very difficult. If you want to just keep working your 40hrs you'll stay at the position you're at and be just happy, but if you want to advance and earn a promotion or more responsibilities you have to really put in more than 40hrs which can be exhausting and is not for everyone. Since it's a startup culture and the room for growth without serious commitment is incredibly limiting, the turnover can be a bit high so you see coworkers come and go all the time. They're small and as such, they invest in you emotionally (again, they are all incredibly supporting and loving people) but beyond salary and typical benefits, they can't invest much further than that.

Don’t expect a management team that is approachable, empathetic, or helpful. I found them to be very callous and egotistical. Management seemed really out of touch, ie. forcing all employees to come to a meeting about shares of the company when many employees didn’t actually have any. Clearly this is something that would alienate many employees, why bother? Very bro environment with beer fridges, happy hours, ping pong. Clearly benefits those with flexible schedules, which is obviously going so exclude customer facing teams. Turnover is outrageous.
