RigUp reviews

In the last few months, it's been utter chaos. Leadership is trying to implement goals but doing it in a way that is unsustainable (30 day goals, expectation of 110% performance in a crisis is tone deaf). The tech product is not as advanced as you might think. C-Suite leadership recently is giving conflicting messages to employees, people feel a lot of uncertainty after being told no layoffs and 2 weeks later seeing layoffs. I would still recommend it as a good place to work to friends but would not sugarcoat the hard truths - be prepared for a lack of clarity (more than any other startup I've worked at), conflicting messages from leadership and a big focus on execution without a clear roadmap. Heavy investor influence seems to be the case in some of these decisions which may just be par for the course.

This company use to be a great company to work for. They really valued their employees and were very transparent with everyone on where the company was heading. Since early 2019, it has been all downhill from there. They hired 200 + people in less than 6 months and it is absolute chaos. Upper management is clueless on what is going on within departments. The company culture and transparency is completely gone at RigUp. People with little to no managerial experience were put into manager roles because they knew the CEO or COO. There is little to no clear communication between teams now. The platform is an absolutely joke and they should stop saying they are a tech company and admit they are a consulting firm. Unless you are a bro or were one of the first 20 people hired, good luck on getting promoted or any career advancement. The only reason I am still at RigUp is because of the unlimited PTO and the flexibility to work from home.
