Better than most SaaS with lots of potential

Pros

The product is loved by its core user base, and its solid for what it does. There are lots of opportunities to advance, and there is training that is generously offered. Since Covid-19, the remote working stipend is generous and there are additional days off once a month to ensure that mental health is maintained. Lots of dedication to DE&I (Diversity Equity and Inclusion)

Cons

its incredibly siloed. If you work in one team you can rarely expect to ever meet, talk or see another team. Its also cursed with Hero's all over the place. Everyone does everything all at the very last.. which means there is little planning that is put in place for most programs or ideas. Also not great everything is in the Executive teams heads, and although they are super strong they "delegate" but then proceed to push their way back into whatever they have delegated. so you will find that as an individual contributor that you do as your told, and cheer when we win, and then get scolded when we loose. The leaders are green-ish to this industry and some get it, most don't. Its starting to feel more and more tech-bro-ish (ala corporate bro... google it) Messaging and product are all over the place and trying to be everything to everyone at a scale that we really cannot handle because we don't have the internal infrastructure to support our big ideas

Pros

Management is trusting of employees to do work and as such allow a lot of perks - unlimited remote work, no facetime culture etc..

Cons

Growing pains and overlap between products can sometimes lead to duplicate work
