Pros

I've been here for five months, working on Postscript's AI products, which you can read about online. I've found the organization to be full of smart, authentic people who show up ready to do their best work. The company has strong leadership in both product and engineering, guiding us in the right direction to capitalize on the opportunities presented by LLMs. The roadmap is exciting, well-defined, and full of opportunities for those looking to take on significant ownership. I'm continually impressed by the quality and scope of thinking my colleagues bring, and I'm in one of those excellent career moments where the environment is helping me to learn and grow. The senior leadership team is candid and transparent about the health of the business, proactively sharing updates on our financial position and ensuring alignment on top company priorities. I'm looking forward to continuing my work here.

Cons

You might struggle here if you prefer having your hand held when it comes to product decisions - engineers are expected to make quick, pragmatic choices to drive products forward. The business places a strong emphasis on revenue-driving features, so it's not the right environment for ivory tower engineers focused solely on perfect architectural abstractions. Not necessarily a con, but culturally, everyone here is striving to do their best, which can create a strong push to work with high intensity. I've never been asked to work late, but I often find myself doing so. That said, Engineering Managers lead with empathy and are proactive in fostering a healthy working culture.

Incredible people held down by a great culture, and a real desire to succeed

Pros

Postscript has one of the best workplace cultures I've encountered, and that is despite being a remote-first company. I think everyone does an excellent job setting high entry barriers to ensure the culture stays strong. And that totally reflects in the type of person is at Postscript: driven, motivated to succeed, yet still humble. For the most part, some of the best group of people I've had the pleasure of working with so far in my career. The founders are 3 of the most employee-first founders I think I've ever met. They are all super accessible. Yes, they have high expectations of everyone in their company, but at the same time are super empathetic and want you to succeed. The will push for you to reach as high as possible. I trust them as I do some of my friends. And they work just as hard if not harder than anyone in the room. A couple other positives I can think of: they are on the upper end of compensation for high-growth startups (they are a YC-backed startup with some high end investors), remote-first, strong space (eCom marketing is surprisingly very lucrative), upward mobility, and super intriguing future with all the exciting work going on with AI.

Cons

I have always read about the typical arc of fast-rising startups and the growing pains they experience, but I have never felt that more than I have at Postscript. It is incredibly fast-moving with strategic priorities sometimes seemingly shifting without notice. It doesn't happen a lot, but happens enough for folks to notice. It's usually never without a reason or without strong conviction. The only con I can think of is to stay away if you're not comfortable with change, the startup environment, and/or putting in some extra effort to keep the ship afloat. The only constant here is change. I personally love that about Postscript as it keeps things interesting, but I can understand how it's not for some people,

Pros

- Very values and mission driven. Care about customers. - Extremely smart team who hold themselves to a high standard - Huge potential in the business (it's growing fast and there's room to advance) - Good management. Capable, transparent, and open to hearing ideas from all places. - Founders care a lot about the team

Cons

It's fully remote, so if you like a bubbly in-person culture Postscript probably isn't for you. However, everyone is nice, collaborates a lot on video calls (US time zones only makes it easy), and we do full team retreats 3 times per year. With those things, plus the in-person onboarding, it's pretty easy to feel connected and have visibility into what others are doing.

Thank you for taking the time to share this feedback! The environment here at Postscript is one we are very proud of - despite being a fully remote company, our teams are very connected and well-aligned. In addition to video collaboration, in-person onboarding (pre COVID-19 and hopefully again in the near future), and team retreats (same note as in-person onboarding) we also recommend that all employees take some time each week, even if just a few minutes, to set up "coffee chats" with other team members to get to know each other better or just hang out. As we expand our People team, we are mixing in fun monthly company events too (in March we had a company-wide St. Patty's Day trivia event and are currently having a friendly competition for March Madness - NCAA Tournament - with cash prizes for the top winners)! There are many ways we can take these connection opportunities even further and we appreciate your recommendations. Open office hours, social co-working times, and cross-team presentation efforts will continue to be brought to life and expanded! Thanks for keeping it real. -Cailee

World-class culture and team

Pros

Postscript has built an incredible culture of innovating aggressively, celebrating its employees & accomplishments, staying humble, and enjoying the day-to-day. You can tell how much thought has been put into getting to this point, and how much is being invested into maintaining & iterating on it. Feeling appreciated and challenged at work makes such a huge difference to your peace of mind & quality of life. The leadership cares about you, and work/life balance is achievable. There's no such thing as perfect, but the team here is focused on getting better every day. It's deeply pragmatic and most things just make sense. I can't recommend this company more.

Cons

You'll be given a high degree of autonomy, and not everyone desires that level of freedom in their work. Being a self-starter and having opinions is really important, or you'll get lost. Being remote isn't for everyone. Postscript does a very good job of maintaining a stellar remote culture, but it's still 100% remote.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts about working with Postscript! Our people are the backbone of this company and our leadership team not only recognizes this, but embraces it. You highlighted that feeling appreciated and challenged at work allows you to have peace of mind and a good quality of life, and we are very proud of our leadership team for keeping these factors a priority. Your perspective on the high degree of autonomy at Postscript and the remote work environment is spot on - applicants should be comfortable working in a 100% remote environment as well as have the drive to dive in, speak up, and get work done with minimal oversight. Everyone is trusted here from day 1 and encouraged to show up each day with their sleeves rolled up, ready to hit the ball out of the park! We hear you on more social co-working time and will include this feedback for the People team's planning discussions. So happy you are here! -Cailee

Pros

I have been at several high growth companies and can say without a doubt that this is the most inclusive and employee focused organization I have worked for. Everyone, from the founders to individual contributors is humble and very hard working. Managers make space for employees to pursue their own career growth and everyone is open to giving and taking feedback and helping the team and company grow. Sounds like lip service as these are all obvious things, but it is HARD to create a culture that is inclusive, nurturing and also high performing. Not to mention that Postscript has always been remote-first. The team is dedicated to creating a stellar remote culture and has been focused on that from the beginning. That makes a huge difference -- it's not a company that switched during the pandemic, remote is in our DNA. In addition to culture, the product and customers are fantastic. E-commerce continues to grow very fast, and we are in the process of building an entirely new category with SMS and Conversational Commerce.

Cons

This isn't a con as much as something to be aware of. With any new category, there is a lot of competition. In order to win, you need to be able to execute well and stay focused. Be prepared to give feedback and help improve others and yourself.

Wow - thank you for sharing such a thoughtful and detailed review! Postscript truly has the advantage of having the absolute best people out there - including leadership. The amount of trust and respect given to every employee, regardless of task or position, is humbling and fosters an environment that our people can thrive in. Thriving employees and amazing, happy customers go hand-in-hand. We have some of the coolest customers out there because we have the coolest team members out there, including you! Cheers to bringing a competitive spirit to the table and being ready to build and grow individually and as a team. We are going to do big things together. -Cailee

Pros

Even as a remote org, the culture is fantastic. It’s easy to connect with others outside of your direct groups, and build relationships across all areas of the company. Everyone wants to support and help one another, and ego is generally kept to a reasonable minimum. There is no fear of change here, which can be a good or a bad thing, but that is the nature of a tech startup. Making sure we are able to pivot and update processes is a good quality to have as long as people are able to adapt well and changes are thoughtfully managed.

Cons

It pains me to say this, but misogyny runs rampant and is concentrated at the top. The cofounders, while good people, just don’t have the experience they need to be able to identify when they are leaning into their biases. The company is trying to do all the right things as far as DEI efforts, but without some accountability from senior leadership in this area, I don’t expect much in the way of true change.

Pros

The product is great, customers love us, people team is great and tries to take care of the employees with good benefits. Generally everyone's nice and good to work with. Cofos are kind and thoughtful but inexperienced.

Cons

When I joined everyone ranted and raved about how great the company culture was. But pretty immediately I got a weird feeling from some individuals. Some people have extreme egos (mainly mid management or people who had been there awhile) acting like they owned the place and you had to get on their good side to succeed. No offense but Postscript isn't extremely successful that they should have a chip on their shoulder (especially with humility being a company value). Leadership has no direction, are young and inexperienced. Every turn has felt out of no where and made with little communication. IPO is a pipe dream. A lot of people are overworked and burnt out with no end in site. Some really valuable people get skimped out on proper promotions, recognition or even have let them leave. While others who were underserving/underperforming get the promotions, resources and anything else they complained about (or had the proper "friend" connections for).
