A "cool" company with problems too big to ignore

Pros

- A genuinely great group of people, I'm glad to see them every day - It's a very good product and I am confident it will continue to dominate its niche - Some nice perks: office snacks, space to hold events, good hardware - Pretty good flexibility

Cons

- Management is lacking in managing experience and it is strongly felt - Many of the people who have been with the company the longest have only worked at Paperless, and are thus promoted above more experienced/older devs. This has caused some conflict within teams. - Path to raises/promotions is completely opaque - Poor communication across the board, but especially from management

Wonderful people to work with. Always felt good coming into the office. Great benefits. Was always learning new concepts on the job.

Cons

There was a major communication problem. The teams felt disjointed. Feedback could have been given back sooner to the employees on how they can improve.
