Not as glamorous as you may think

Pros

- coworkers are great - fun places to chill around the office, like bean bag chairs - use Macs

Cons

The pay is much lower than industry standards. There are a lot of things going on internally that won't show in an interview. Many people have written about it on here but those posts are mysteriously disappearing. As soon as a negative review pops up, an email goes out to the whole company asking that we submit a positive review to counteract it. In my opinion, these reviews should be candid and unsolicited. Management isn't very involved in the day to day success of employees and expects everyone to know everything or figure it out on their own. Benefits aren't great and health insurance is so expensive you might as well find your own, less expensive plan.

Thanks for your feedback. We evolve our internal processes continuously to keep up with our growth. Two weeks ago we hired a SVP of Human Capital Management who is working directly with every team member in the company to make sure goals are met and training plans are executed. He has performed competitor and market analysis and found that our benefits are comparable if not better than our competition including salaries and health care. Our salaries did generally lag the market due to bootstrapping the company, which is why we created a profit sharing program for all employees - so they could earn long term upside for initial concessions in salary. Our total compensation for most team members is now higher than our direct competition. Health Care costs are expensive in general. Some employers pay more for health care but do not have the total compensation, benefits and perks that we provide. Only a single post has been removed from Glassdoor at their discretion because it was offensive and slanderous.

Pros

Flexible WFH Policies Incredible Project Management (sadly most from my time have left) Amazing Location Great Company Retreats Really beneficial Internship experience if you can stomach the low pay. Mindgrub Cafe food is amazing. There is a lot to learn from fellow developers.

Cons

You’re accepting a substantial pay cut for the pros above. Everyone acknowledges this, I accepted a job for 55% more pay after 2 years at Mindgrub. The benefits are weak. (Meager Time Off, Profit sharing is a joke) Bizarre company initiatives that don’t make any money but instead look cool for clients and potential employees. Just about every month I’d ask “hey where is XYZ” and the answer is “oh they left last week”. Unless they’re upper management, your resignation will be swept under the rug. As a junior developer I always felt like a small interchangeable cog in a machine.

Pros

If being overworked and underpaid is a plus, this company is for you!

Cons

Overworked. Underpaid. CEO is more concerned with stepping on the little people on his way to Everest than he is about daily life. Not the place to work if you value family.
