Pros

Chip Perry and the new leadership team are already making a huge difference. They are working hard to cement relationships with dealers, OEMs and partners.... and it's already paying off. Product and marketing are improving too. The pace of change is fast and you need to be a self starter to succeed. This is not the place for those who sit and wait for direction. You are empowered and expected to make it happen.

Cons

The chaos associated with growth will cause some growing pains. It's not for everyone. Risk may be high but the reward of rebuilding a business can be huge. The potential risk is that the go-getters who love this type of culture will not have the patience to wait for the reward.... so we may lose some good talent.

Pros

TrueCar is a place for people who want their work to make a difference. TrueCar is not for people that are only good at taking orders. From the first day of work, TrueCar will expect you to hit the ground running. If you are not used to learning quickly and figuring things out as you go, this would not be a good place for you. The reason TrueCar is a place for doers is because it is a company full of potential and opportunities. If you execute and make a difference, you will be rewarded. Under the new CEO, we are in the process of reorganizing. We now have a clear path and we have exciting products in the works. Right now is the best time to join TrueCar.

Cons

Under the new CEO and management, nothing yet. We'll see how everything plays out in 2017.

Pros

Full time software developer here for 3+ years, and loving it. We get to work on cutting edge tech, at scale. Strong culture of getting it done, quickly and correctly. Good mix of learning and coaching. I don't understand the small handful of ultra negative reviews on this site. Perhaps a few bad apples?

Cons

Not enough meeting/conference rooms We don't get to hear from the executive team often enough. I mean, the talks are great, so keep them up, but can we get more? And with more time for prepared and on the spot questions?
