Robinhood reviews

The only con would be the ambiguous nature of the job, if you are a person that prefers structure and being told what to do daily, Robinhood is not a place for you. You get what you put into it.

It’s tough to put a rating on Robinhood. At first everything was exciting and different. Then leading up to IPO and post IPO things began to change quickly. In a recent meeting Vlad said his CEO rating was going down probably because of the current stock price. At that moment I realized he had no finger on the pulse of the company any more. The reason his rating is going down is because so many peole that were loyal and believed in the mission have been taken advantage of. They had their equity comp taken from them and been passed for promotions by outside hiring time and time again. Only to train their new boss and have roles and responsibilities taken from them. The environment that use to feel fun now feels corporate and leaderships answer to make everyone feel better is shipping products. The ones that care and try to voice concerns of employees turnover only get candid answers from leadership saying it’s natural from company growth. People really don’t voice how they feel because they need a job and the benefits. First rule of business. Take care of your people. Robinhood will continue to stand out from traditional brokerages because the competition is infamous for burn out, poor ethics, pushy sales, and shady business. However has time goes by the employees who helped Robinhood pre IPO see the signs of it becoming the same.
