Pros

I've had the benefit of working at other companies and that generated context on what the normal working world is: this isn't it. We're encouraged to be ourselves. The whole goal is to align an employee with what their passion is and create a start-up environment for you to run.

Cons

Come prepared to work. We are passionate and driven. Don't lose perspective. I see way too many people get upset at the smallest things here.

Thanks for the thoughtful review, and for the push to stay inspirational--it's an important reminder, and something we need to continue to improve on--our mission is at the core of who we are, and keeping it top of mind is a top priority for all of us, so thank you for pushing on it! -Katie Burke

Pros

Positive Culture: The people and immediate team members are genuinely kind, collaborative, and supportive. Work-Life Flexibility: A true 100% remote work environment that offers great day-to-day flexibility. Solid Perks on Paper: The benefits package explicitly includes an unlimited PTO policy.

Cons

The "Unlimited PTO" Trap: While the company advertises unlimited PTO, it is impossible to take without penalty. If you take time off, you are still strictly required to make up every single call you missed while you were gone to hit your monthly metrics. Declining Direction & High Turnover: The company has faced a very rough year and is heading in the wrong direction. Morale is incredibly low, and talent is actively draining from the organization—several people are resigning entirely, going on medical leave due to stress, or desperately trying to transfer to different internal teams. Unrealistic, Extreme CSM Metrics: Customer Success Managers are being pushed to the brink by unattainable, rigid KPIs. The role has shifted from strategic relationship management to a high-volume, transactional grind. Current monthly expectations include: 80 calls per month 76% connected call rate for low-usage accounts 50% engagement rate required for at-risk accounts Stagnant Compensation: Despite the extreme increase in workload, micromanagement, and pressure, the annual raise for CSMs this year was under 2%, which fails to align with basic cost-of-living adjustments.
