Pros

Work from home flexibility, most of the people are good people

Cons

Aggressive productivity targets not realistically aligned with actual workload. They are attempting to apply a standardized performance metric to a product that is significantly different each time; most employees regularly work late during the week and more on the weekend to achieve the target. The necessity of consistently working significantly more hours than 40 destroys the benefits of work from home. Unlimited vacation apparently means three weeks. Generous, sure, but if you mean three weeks, say three weeks. Work is reviewed, and you are docked if certain errors are found. While you are free to ask questions of coworkers, you are not working with a team. You are alone, and mistakes are held against you. Some of the things you can be held against could be readily solved by the technology the company is supposed to be developing, but rather than address the tech, they punish the drafter

Pros

Other thoughtful, smart employees who are generous with their time and expertise.

Cons

Management and founders just do not have what it takes to succeed doing this type of development; they constantly chase the next thing, are always creating something that they think customers want, and do not have a thoughtful, overarching strategy that makes sense. The benefits are horrible; the worst insurance I've ever had. There is no 401k match; they want to be a tech company, but do not have a solid method for treating employees as valuable, and thinking of how to use the intelligence of others to get ahead. The smart, solid people who have worked at EvenUp have all left. They also treat their Legal Operations team terribly; turnover there is so high. They manage to keep getting funding because they lie. The backend of the products is held together by glue and tape. The good engineers and other product people have all left; the customers of this company are getting sold a faulty product that will break, and they don't know it because they're lawyers, not tech people. The actual product people buy is terrible; EvenUp has no idea what they're doing from the demand side of things, and now they're a system of work, which makes no sense. Stay away; this is not a good place to have a job.
