Pros

-Work remotely anywhere -Good benefits -Good HR Team

Cons

-Meeting heavy culture -Poor Planning Company-Wide -Directors are expected to do a lot of heavy lifting that is VP level -Innovation isn't valued from teams that aren't in product -Problems stemming from poor executive leadership, which has lead to poor planning and resource management (V2MOM) pre and post IPO, which is now creating low employee morale across marketing, sales, product, systems, and engineering. The culture is super meeting heavy and because the executive team is slow to make changes and allergic to basic process like requiring all employees to add agendas to meetings and using one project management system to operationalize the V2MOM, there is a snowball effect.

Pros

- Great if you're an engineer. For a while we're almost a protected species. Until you form an opinion that is different from your manager's. - Decent package although on the lower end of the market. - User Testing is a prime example of a startup that had a good culture that got steam-rolled by the IPO.

Cons

- The only thing saving User Testing is it's sales team and the current lack of alternatives. The product is a mess held together by duct tape. - Product and engineering leadership is questionable to say the least. It is riddled with politics, cliques, unethical management of employees and terrible, and far from transparent practices, adept at reinventing things that shouldn't be. - Burnout is rampant and there is a revolving door of joiners and leavers. - WARNING: You will be fired for NO GOOD reason. It happened more often than it should. Often for reasons that are less than adequate. Fairness and ethics is not a value User Testing cares about. HR is not there to support you. They are there to protect the company and their executives (their bosses). You are not considered. If you are fired, they won't care or ask about your side of the story. There is no warm up to the firing. No "hey, we see you're not doing what we need you to do, so here's a performance improvement plan". You will just be cut. Many women, black, asian, and other underrepresented employees left because of the toxic way User Testing operates and treats their employees. There was even an employee led "IDEB Group" to help the company improve. I was in this group. HR and executives did not care that morale was dropping even though we gave extra time out of our day to support their improvement. Stay away from them if you can. Now that they are public and become more and more of a machine, it's only going to get worse and you will be ingested and spat out like no one cares.

Pros

Amazing colleagues, fantastic product, excellent upper management, and work-life balance.

Pay isn't competitive; upper management needs more diversity, especially persons of color, primarily Black and Hispanic.
