Pros
- Pretty good compensation in some cases, although it can vary considerably between different people in similar positions. - Good benefits with 401k matching, great health insurance, and fully covered mental healthcare. - Remote work with no pressure - in engineering at least - to come into the office. - Most people care about the goal of helping people get mental health care, doing so in a responsible manner, and care about each other. - Some in leadership are great people (others are definitely not). - Mark, for his faults, is a competent leader and seems to mostly have a vision for what the company needs to be doing.
Cons
- Many departments are understaffed due to a combination of layoffs in December and talented people leaving the company. - Leadership at the C-Suite, and higher-up in engineering, feels like they're often flailing and don't have a cohesive vision. - "Change is our constant", which can be good, but becomes grating after a year or two lacking stability. - One of the recent acquisitions was a company with frankly gimmicky technology that doesn't seem valuable to the mission or even profits. - We keep losing talented employees because we don't seem to care about how employees feel about such constant change and the poorly-thought-out decisions of leadership. - Some technology decisions seem very poorly thought-out, but there's little ability to correct course.
