Cons

- higher talent turnover recently, but all to very attractive AI startups or to start their own venture - comp is lower than some other comparable high powered companies

Business Outlook

Pros

- The product is great, and there is a pretty clear vision of where we are going with it. - Everyone is very talented and easy to work with. - Nice hybrid culture, with a lot of flexibility if you need to work remotely for a while, but the stronger sense of community that comes from working in an office. - Huge TAM, and the real possibility that Retool could become a major part of how software is developed.

Cons

- Some ups and downs with company growth from quarter to quarter, even if it smooths out favorably over time. - Rapid feature growth in past years, but we have a harder time supporting what we've built. Customers can become frustrated with the bugs,

Good product, amazing people

Business Outlook

Pros

Culture and people are great, there is a strong will to make employees successful, prioritize internal transfers when possible, clear communication.

Cons

Might feel big for people looking for a startup feel, but small enough to feel like a big company/corporate. In general, feels more like a startup than a big company.
