Pros

+ 10x product value proposition with customers adopting worldwide + Crush of inbound demand unlike anything I have seen + Kind, thoughtful CEO who moves fast and has a crazy big vision + AI and engineering brainiacs who build and ship product fast + A+ co-workers who are kind, humble, hard-working, and have a great sense of humor + Sales team is landing great brands and Fortune 500 customers regularly + Great office vibe. Typically together 4x/week and WFH 1x/week with flexibility. + Profitable

Cons

Growing pains associated with scaling up to serve customer demand. - internal go-to-market systems, analytics, data are a WIP - we're at capacity in our offices in LA, Palo Alto, and San Francisco so need to move to bigger offices - many functions including design, marketing, CS, ops are new and aren't built out - currently serving large European and JAPAC demand from California which makes time zone coverage tough

Pros

Don't even bother looking for pros here. Working here has been such a terrible experience! If you're thinking of working here, don't!

Cons

HeyGen might just be one of the worst companies you could ever work for! The company is run by incompetent leadership and toxic management. Every decision they make is short-sighted, and they both treat employees as nothing more tools to be used. The company lacks structure; communication is terrible, expectations are vague, roles aren't clearly defined, and accountability is often avoided. Employees' work-life balance is unsustainable; we're assigned brutal workloads, forced to work long hours, and expected to meet unreasonable; demands all the time. They pay is pretty awful, and there aren't any opportunities for employees to advance. Unless that sounds like a great experience to you, I would suggest staying away from HeyGen at all cost!
