Pros

I thought GP was a good employer, they had a good vision but everything seemed to changed when the CEO and management changed. The only good think about this company is that they are genuinely remote.

Cons

Tell me if a company really cares for their employees if how they perform a layoff is this way: 1. Continue spending on events abroad, fly people to different countries for team buildings, and during these events talk about how the company is "doing well" and "the future looks great" 2. Suddenly, one day, all in the same day, set a meeting with the exiting employee, and tell them they are being laid off right before the Christmas holidays, without zero explanation on what or why this happened, and tell them that same day is their last day. 3. The HR is obviously reading a script when telling you you are being laid off - no empathy whatsoever. 4. No light on how the company chose who will stay and go, tenured ones who had setup the company foundations got laid off while those who have been in the company less than 3 months got to stay. 5. Because there was no company announcement when the layoffs happened, current employees kept asking the exiting employees what was happening. Imagine getting laid off already, then having to deal with the stress of multiple colleagues asking you what happened and if they are part of it all, while you also have no idea yourself. Also, aside from the massive layoff, GP started becoming political and bureaucratic when the management changed. The executives are good at spouting flowery words, but truth be told you can't understand their vision or even the rationale behind their decisions. Do not get employed here if you want job security.

G-P Response
3y
While we are glad you enjoyed aspects of G-P’s culture, we are concerned about what you feel drove our recent changes in team structure. The realignment of our teams you reference, which affected less than 10% of G-P globally, was not a decision made lightly and was not based on changes in leadership or executive preference. As often happens in business, our path forward necessitated that we better align our teams with our multi-year plan. We do understand that this change was significant for every person it affected. We understand that this change is not easy and our priority when making these changes was to do so with care and compassion. We will continue to invest in and support our people with a dedication to building a culture of inclusivity and diversity. We want to reiterate that we value everyone’s contributions at G-P. Please lean on the resources we have provided during this time of transition. We wish you all the best in your future career endeavors.

Pros

Real Career Growth: This isn’t a place where you’re stuck in one role forever. There is a genuine "promote from within" philosophy. It’s incredibly motivating to see so many current leaders who started in entry-level or mid-level positions. Retention Speaks Volumes: You’ll find a lot of "veterans" here with 4+ years of service, which is rare in tech/remote environments. People stay because they’re treated well. 100% Remote & Global: The flexibility is unmatched. You get to work with incredibly smart people from all over the world, which keeps perspectives fresh and the talent bar high. Non-Hierarchical Leadership: Unlike other companies with "ivory tower" leadership, the execs here are accessible. There’s a focus on doing great work rather than navigating complex political layers. Psychological Safety to Innovate: The culture is fast-paced but fun. We’re encouraged to experiment, fail fast, and find better ways to do things. If you have a solution that improves a process, leadership actually listens.

Cons

Not for the Passive: Because it’s fast-paced and experimental, you have to be comfortable with ambiguity. If you need a rigid, step-by-step manual for every task, the "experimentation" culture might feel overwhelming at first. Time Zone Tetris: Being global and 100% remote is a huge plus, but it does mean being mindful of meeting times across different continents.

Pros

- Fully remote work - Met some smart and ambitious people.

Cons

The person who hired me was laid off three months later and I took on their responsibilities. That's when I learned that the people who previously held that position were also very quickly laid off. Four months later, they laid me off. Two months after that, they laid off the person who laid me off. And one month after that, they laid of the person who laid that person off. At a certain point, even the least perceptive among us must realize that the problem is not with all the people who get laid off so quickly. It's an org that's rotten to the core.
