Pros

Good paycheck, drink and snack area

Cons

A paycheck isn't everything. Not worth all the headaches and business stupidity you're dealing with on a daily basis. Priorities and projects change on the daily. Your day will be spent rushing half-thought through, buggy products through the door and dealing with the fallout. The business owner should take a few management classes and learn how to tolerate and appreciate different points of view.

If you're not embarrassed by the first version of your product, you've launched too late. The world is changing faster than ever, and we move fast. What worked last month doesn't work the next month in today's covid world, so the only real thing we can count on in 2022 is change. I'm sorry that the job gives you headaches. That's no fun and hopefully when you find a new job it is more calming for you and stress free. That's how working somewhere should be. No one at this company has ever been fired for speaking up or disagreeing with a boss. You clearly haven't spent much time working here or talking to people in those higher paid positions you talk about. We highly value different opinions. Almost every change that happens is met with incredible resistance because people can speak their mind and have different thoughts about how to solve problems best. At each level of the organization, each person in leadership has to take various opinions of the people they are in charge of and make the call that they think blends what's important to the people they manage. Just because you disagree with your superior, doesn't mean that your boss is a yes-men. It just means that they listened to you, and disagreed with you.

Pros

- Interview & on-boarding process was comfortable, casual, but still professional. It wasn't intimidating but exciting to join the team. - Transparency, transparency, transparency. Can this company get a little messy? Yeah, but every company is. The others just don't show you what's going on behind closed doors. - No micro management, complete ownership over your work. - Amazing benefits. FREE medical & dental if you don't have any dependents (those would cost $$). - 401k is insane. My current dollar amount is near doubled compared to my previous job where I worked for 4 years. I have been here for 1 year. - Mix of remote and in-office employees, lots of different backgrounds, everyone is encouraged to be themselves. - Company provides COLA raises whenever possible to help us all with the cost of living. Did not ever receive that at my previous company. - Constantly encouraged to work hard BUT also have fun and take time for yourself. - INSANE PTO! It rolls over yearly and has no limits.

Cons

- This was a tiny company 5 years ago that has grown significantly. Have there been bumps in the road? For sure, but that happens anywhere, even when there is no growth. - Layoffs have been hard to watch and there are some growing pains after such a significant event happens at a company. However, seeing almost every huge company going through the same thing shows me this isn't just a Corporate Tools problem. This is an economy problem.
