Best company culture

Pros

The company culture is second to none, the pay is very competitive pay, and remote work is not new to them, so on-boarding and remote work at the company is so smooth. Incredible work/life balance.

Cons

There are no yearly bonuses, unless you are a people manager, and as they go public I worry the company culture may be affected.

At Planet we feel it is important to contribute to employee's career goals and development. For newer managers we’ve recently developed an ongoing “Managers at Planet” program to provide tools on being an effective manager. We’re confident we’ll continue to see growth and will continue to provide Learning & Development opportunities.. Culture Amp surveys are intended to be a snapshot of a point in time. While there is always room for improvement, we have seen a +10% increase in our global results and a +13% increase in San Francisco alone since our October 2018 survey! We’re actively targeting different areas that will continue with that trend. We invite you to reach out to us to discuss your feedback further so we can more specifically address your individual experience.

Pros

Planet is filled with articulate, intelligent, ambitious and committed people. The goals for the company are broad and ambitious as the commercial space arena is still exploring it's strengths and weaknesses. There is great autonomy in your workday and great demands on desired outcomes.

Cons

Planet is at that moment when you realize you have grown up and have to act like it, more planning in this area is needed. People often narrow their own scope to keep up with work demands to the detriment of new employees and ownerless areas.
