Pros

Good if you're remote and if you're looking to get comfortable in one role for a long period

Cons

Starting to feel corporate and like they're a bit lost. Lots of changes are happening, and a whole team that was built up over the years was made redundant. Agree with recent comment on "An old school mindset, toxic 'family run business' mentality" Also agree with the other recent shared reviews around the push to work longer hours and praising the all hours and weekend work ethic. Lack of enablement within teams and recent changes - the only focus right now is product and unifying the company message. This is how you can tell that direction & strategy is coming from higher up without any ears on the ground, and they're losing touch. Also agree with other reviews stating a significant lack of progression and recognition for hard work.

Pros

Remote company with meetups every few years

Cons

Wouldn’t recommend unless you’re genuinely desperate. There are some great people at Gatekeeper but it’s a mess. Leadership’s priorities constantly shift, there’s constant turnover of senior leaders that each restructure everything from top to bottom as soon as they join the org, and they never commit to a clear focus for more than a few weeks at a time. Burnou's a massive problem here. Sadly, there’s a strong lack of trust from the top. Senior leadership trusts only a small inner circle, and if you’re not in it, you’re basically going to be justifying your existence on a daily basis. Your calendar and activity WILL be monitored because managers don’t trust that people are doing their jobs, even though everyone’s snowed under. Employees are pushed to be “obsessed with AI” but the reality is that AI adoption at this company has drastically increased everyone’s workload, and people are exhausted. If you're considering a job here, just note that they're reducing staff numbers and simultaneously increasing their revenue goals. Again, there are very good people here, but the culture makes it hard to thrive. I wouldn’t recommend working here without significant change
