Excellent midstage startup for engineers

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

As a midstage startup, everyone's work matters & everything ships. We're mature enough within the engineering organization to have high quality codebases and enough discipline to do things right. As we grow, rapidly, there's plenty of room to grow your own role. For remote engineers the company is committed to integrating remote and onsite work.

Cons

Rev is still learning how to onboard newer engineers, so don't expect a great training program. There's also typical startup-isms, such as few corporate policies being written down.

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

* Good Teamwork Dynamic, independent teams set goals and pursue how to achieve them with minimal upper management * Small team with great communication. CEO is accessible and often participates in planning meetings. * Company culture is customer-centric. Focused on improving the product for clients and freelancers alike * Flexible work hours. Weekly sprints define work to be done, but I can finish at the most convenient time of day for me * Great salary

Cons

* It's expensive to live in the Bay Area. Working remotely for now (would be nice to actually go to the office more often)
