Stay far away - Anonymous employee RapidScale Employee Review

Thank you for your feedback. We’re excited to see you appreciated the compensation structure while you were at RapidScale. We believe in paying top performers well. That being said, I’m truly sorry that you didn’t advance your career and/or meet your desired career goals while here at RapidScale. RapidScale was once a startup company that grew quickly, thanks to the hard-working colleagues that you most likely were. As of August 2018, RapidScale is owned by Cox Enterprises, a $20B family-owned company that has won numerous employee satisfaction awards, in addition to the “Best Work Environments” award RapidScale won in 2017. Since the acquisition, we’ve added numerous additional benefits for our employees that can only come with the size of a $20B company, including unrivaled healthcare coverage, 401k matching, unlimited PTO, and much more. In addition, our senior management team has grown and changed immensely since this feedback was provided, and we’ve added many seasoned C-level business leaders who today help run the business. We are still entrepreneurial, operating inside of the Cox ecosystem, but no longer function in that ever-changing startup mode that many thrive in, but that may not have been the right fit for you. While we work hard to pay the best employees the best salaries, our non-exempt employees do sometimes work overtime and are paid for it. This is communicated upfront during hiring. Most of our hourly employees look forward to working overtime. That being said, this is a fast-paced, accountability-based work environment designed for top performers and that will hopefully always be ingrained in our culture. Thank you for taking the time to express your concerns. We meet weekly to improve the culture here and are always looking to get better. Your feedback has been invaluable in making us a better company.
