Pros

- Above average pay for certain roles - Full flexibility - Autonomy and empowerment to do your own projects and improve things

Cons

- Very poor leadership starting from the very top. It’s very hard to trust them as individuals and as decision makers based on my experience at the company. - Being a remote company doesn’t mean never investing in getting your people together. There’s a total lack of company culture. - Most employees feel trapped due to current environment in tech. If the macroeconomic environment was better people would be leaving at a much more rapid rate. - You are expected to be expert in complex topics without any resources (or messy ones) or formal training. People who supposedly are experts never help you. - Lack of respect of their own values, especially kindness. Have seen people getting fired in horrible ways in the middle of sick leaves for example.

Thank you for sharing your review. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the flexibility and autonomy of working at Remote. As a startup with a team spread around the world, we rely heavily on documentation, asynchronous communication, and ownership as cornerstones of our culture. This allows us to create the flexibility that you mentioned, and provides balance and a deep sense of belonging and connection. It also allows everyone to work at their peak hours of focus, distraction-free. We’re sorry to hear that you didn’t have a great experience working here, and wish you all the best!

Pros

One of the best companies I have ever worked for. Ambitious goals, kindness in the workplace, unlimited PTO and flex hours, async work culture and minimal meetings. Leadership in my vertical cares about their staff, and delivering a great experience to the employees. My mental health has improved significantly working for Remote. Fantastic emphasis on developing their current leaders. Fast paced and constantly changing so no two days are alike. Filled to the brim with very talented and hardworking staff.

Cons

It is a start up. Priorities can shift quickly and you need to be able to keep up. Change and iteration are constants here. Leadership demands excellence and it takes hard work to deliver that. These can be cons for individuals who don't like this kind of pace/work.
