Pros

- Some good teammates - Occasional interesting things to work on - 401k match (but no company stock incentives/ownership options)

Cons

- Executives that only care about $, but won't tell you how much money the company makes during the few all hands they hold because you can't be trusted - Mistrust is rampant and throwing people under the bus is a common practice. - Management is worried about losing their own jobs more than taking care of their employees and treating them right. - Developers are treated as a "resource" that costs the company money. - Be ready to be low man on the totem pole no matter how good the work is that you do: seniority rules - This is a 100% technology based product without a CTO. - Ideas/new features come only from product teams with deadlines not attached to actual estimates.

Pros

~ More relaxed remote culture (or was, now that tides seem to be shifting and roles are moving onsite) ~ Lots of really cool, friendly people (mainly at lower ranks) ~ ReUp Fridays once a month (day off that doesn't count towards PTO) ~ Pay & benefits were some of the best I've had in my professional career ~ Worked in an industry that I was passionate about, and it was cool being a part of the cannabis roll-out across the United States and Canada ~ My immediate manager and team were great and tight, but I think my experience was more of the exception than the standard

Cons

~ Chaotic senior leadership that sets a toxic vibe all the way at the top of the company, making lower level managers and leaders have to block and shield their employees from the storms happening further up the chain of command ~ Push for onsite roles & culture shifts (HQ is located in a very high cost of living area in southern Orange County) ~ Constant layoffs & shaky employee morale ~ Incomplete tech stack, especially for Sales & Marketing ~ Seems to have a nepotism problem ~Benefits have had some recent reductions (medical insurance had some co-insurance decreases, no more snack boxes for remote workers, no more home office allowance) ~ $MAPS Stock is very low, RSUs are basically worthless if your vesting tranches happened at higher stock prices

Pros

Snack Boxes. 1 Friday off per month. Some of the Managers are okay.

Cons

Leadership all the way up the ranks. They are incapable of executing on any of the numerous initiatives they suddenly throw your way. They show an incredible level of ineptitude when it comes to understanding what is actually going on in their markets. These high 6 figure "Directors" are barely able to string together a proper sales contest. Newly hired managers make you think "Wow, if THIS person was who they ended up going with.... how awful were the other candidates?" They hire Directors with literally ZERO experience in Cannabis and it very much is reflected in their intelligence level when it comes to the industry. Stock is plummeting. Company has lost 2/3rds of it's value since it's IPO and has shown zero signs of recovering. They have some of the worst retention I have ever seen working across several large tech companies. They scare away their all-stars by shoving asinine KPI's in peoples faces each and every day. To the point where you wonder if the people telling you to do your job have actually even worked in sales. HR Department is bar-none the worst I have ever dealt with. Dutchie is going to eat their lunch. I could keep going and going!
