Pros

1. Decent pay 2. A product that is useful every day. 3. Good colleagues across NA and Europe. In my experience working on cross-functional projects, the teams really support each other and raise the bar. 4. Remote first hybrid. They've got the model right, and more companies should follow. However, if you are senior, there will be some implicit peer pressure to come into the office, or you'll miss out while the others are warming up to execs.

Cons

1. Has become very top-down in the past year 2. The layoffs were aggressive. They didn't try to find a place for good talent; they just made sweeping cuts of good and poor performers. 3. The Head of Product was promoted to CEO after not delivering in a product leadership role. This was the most confusing promotion ever. 4. Promotions at certain levels were almost non-existent.

Pros

- Office life: I wasn't sold on returning to the office, but they've made it a really lovely experience. I'm not required to come in, just encouraged. I'm enjoying it much more than I anticipated. My meals are taken care of. My transportation needs are covered and flexible - sometimes I take MUNI, sometimes I drive. -On-site culture: Very deliberate about bringing teams together. There are always team on-sites at the office. I appreciate the intentionality in including remote employees. -Products: There's a lot of excitement about the products we're building and how we're pitching ourselves to the market. - AI: We have access to so many AI tools. I think this is a major selling point because my AI fluency is rapidly developing, and Superhuman isn't putting limits on it.

Cons

There's been a lot of change in the last two years. Grammarly acquired Coda, Superhuman Mail, and Rows. Then rebranded to Superhuman. Plus the leadership changes that come with that. You can only imagine the identity crisis that comes with all those changes. It feels like we're starting to come out on the other side, but it's also very clear we're in a moment of change. It can be hard to keep up with all the new products, product changes, and other updates.
