Pros

* The size of the company tripled in 2018, and there’s just as much growth ahead and contribution to be made * It feels like everyone in the company are energised in a very good way * People are humble, and happy to collaborate. The company takes extra care to bring everyone together twice a year for yearly events, as well as more often for the each team. * Empowerment is a big play in company values. Everyone are empowered to lead and take on initiatives in their areas of interest to further create impact and grow themselves. * Work/life balance is not a slogan here. * Connection with the customers is invaluable and anyone can join in and interact with customers. The company genuinely listens and acts based on customers feedback which helps build the right product and address real challenges that customers face. * Transparent and inclusive culture and a big spotlight on communicating a lot.

Cons

* Slack is chatty and takes some time to get used to

Pros

Fully remote, flexible, and monthly stipends. Good pay.

Cons

Shady leadership. Tendency to hire employees for a specific reason only to dissolve their position once whatever project they forecasted for the employee is complete. I’ve seen it happen to multiple employees during my employment until it finally happened to me after a few years. Was advised by a former employee in leadership that I would more than likely be overloaded with work and worked out the door in some way because that was their trend. I didn’t believe it but it started happening to many people around me. I don’t trust these people and managers are very loose lipped, move sloppily, and doesn’t know how to not let secrets slip out. I knew my position was being dissolved from meetings I saw on my managers calendar. Luckily I started applying for jobs because I saw the writing on the walls. I had something else lined up but was still a bit blindsided because I was clearly communicating need for help to my leadership. Multiple interviews asking how I was doing and what I needed help with only for 3 days later to be told my position was no longer needed.
