Pros

Excellent for gaining experience and important skills necessary to succeed in the industry. Offers a high potential for learning and personal growth in general. Great benefits.

Cons

Salary on the lower end for the industry. Promotions are often given to the manager's inner circle rather than to the most qualified person. Seemingly all departments have an extremely strong HR culture that reminded me of the bullies in middle school.

Pros

- Hybrid schedule flexibility - Comprehensive benefits - Genuine, kind people to work with - Leadership sets a positive tone and lives company values - Product is good for public interest

Cons

Being a newer public company, many solutions and processes feel like they were bolted on rather than designed from the ground up. There is little to no documentation around several key processes. Compensation is a little lower than the competition. Flexible time off is a bit of a scam. It gets the company out of having to pay out employee PTO. I would rather have standard PTO so I don't feel guilt over taking time off.

Thank you for taking the time to share thoughtful feedback. We appreciate your perspective and are glad to hear that flexibility, benefits, our product, and the people you work with have had a positive impact on your experience. These are areas we care deeply about. We also appreciate you highlighting opportunities related to processes and documentation. As a growing company, we focus on building greater clarity and consistency in these areas. Please share feedback with your leadership team as these efforts move forward. We also acknowledge your feedback on compensation and time off. We regularly assess our programs align with the market and how team members experience them day to day. Flexible time off is a popular and innovative benefit across the tech industry, and we offer it with the goal of giving team members more flexibility to take time away when they need it.
