Pros

- The people are some of the best and most talented people I have worked with. - Very strong engineering culture with a focus on doing it the right way. - The culture at work is amazing. Tons of dogs in the office and great energy. - Fun team events and social gatherings - Competitive pay to market standards - Ability to grow rapidly in career

Cons

- Lack of communication at the middle/senior leadership level - Poor execution of layoffs during the COVID-19 pandemic. The way the layoffs were executed went againt the core values they preach.

A company that has no faith in their employees.

Pros

You get to be around dogs and people who are just like you. You will make some of your best friends here.

Cons

After a few weeks of an economic downturn and a bit of profit loss, Rover decided to let go 41% of their employees. 9% were left on standby in a state of confusion. The CSuite chose to listen to Periscope dashboards vs. listening to their employees and their suggestions. Rover also chose to give minimal severance during a time of crisis and simply "wished us all the best on future endeavors". Two weeks prior to the mass execution, Rover had claimed that the business was in a good place financially and that we are all going to be able to make it through the COVID-19 crisis. Only two weeks later (today), they decided to lay off nearly 200 employees via a Google Live Stream. In no way would we (our collective group) recommend trusting the senior leadership at this company. And we would also not trust them in taking care of your dog. If they can't take care of people, why would you trust them to take care of their pet?

The past few weeks have been really tough for Rover, as we’ve had to say goodbye to team members who have been instrumental in building our platform and business. While we’re confident that we’ll emerge from these challenging times stronger than ever, our heart goes out to those who have been affected.
