Pros
Remote work and decent medical benefits.
Cons
It’s hard to put a finger on the toxicity, but it’s definitely there. It isn’t quite micromanagement, yet there’s a persistent lack of trust. Employees are hired for their expertise, but then not trusted to use it or given the tools needed. The human element is steadily stripped away through an aggressive push to use AI in nearly every function. Even simple internal emails are often overly formal and require AI-generated drafts and peer approval before being sent, which erodes autonomy and slows basic communication. The company is rushing toward an IPO, but this urgency seems to hinder investment in the compliance processes and internal tools needed to support that growth. The culture feels like a startup without the upside - high pressure and rapid change, but without the flexibility, trust, or innovation that usually define startup environments. CEO encourages employees to take chances and grow the business, yet leadership frequently introduces roadblocks that make that growth difficult in practice. The result is a confusing and frustrating environment where expectations and reality don’t align. In fact, not a whole lot aligns in general. Overall, some things I experienced here were genuinely shocking and I'm excited to move on.
