Pros
The talent bar here is INSANE. It's almost intimidating. Someone once said on an all hands that they'd "never felt more mid," which pretty much summarizes how talented ppl are here. Smart, but also really high EQ - great communicators, also nice too! Biggest pro at WRITER honestly. It's disappointing to see some of the other reviews here. Seems like mostly from CS. It's hard to be in CS at any startup, let alone one in a space that is changing SO fast AND serving enterprise business buyers where CS plays such a critical role. We've made some important leadership adds in recent months to address these issues directly. The product and our strategy has changed a lot. But I've found that each pivot has made sense. Not as we were going through it always, but definitely as things shook out in the market. The pace, the pivots, the ambiguity, the 0 to 1. I don't think it's unique to WRITER given the space we're in. I respect that we can learn and change fast. We all get to use our product everyday, build agents, and become experts in the latest AI. Also love: I've never worked with so many amazing women sales ppl and leaders. We celebrate Women's Day here. We've had kids day.
Cons
Our culture is both transparent and direct. Ppl are very ambitious. We've got a hard driving culture here that may not be for everyone. The benefits are not as great as I've had in the past. I pay more for health insurance here than I have in my previous companies.
