Pros

Best in class colleagues, comprehensive benefits, balanced work/life schedule, fun & challenging opportunities. Management is supportive of team needs and displays empathy towards all of life's experiences that the team has both in and out of work. Able to work autonomously without micromanagement. Leadership is receptive to feedback and eager to do better for the team, as well as customers.

Cons

Changes in the organization from 1.5 years ago have been hard for some of the team and the ripples of those changes are still felt. The waters are steadying now - hopefully the team can shift focus towards all the exciting opportunities that lie ahead. Change is hard and it can also be a good thing.

Pros

Unlimited PTO, decent pay and permanent work from home. Work life balance is fine.

Cons

Since the founders were forced out, the new leadership has shown little passion or commitment to the product. Their continued presence appears driven more by personal financial incentives than by long-term vision. Although feedback is routinely collected, it is rarely acted upon, and many internal processes remain broken. Product quality has declined, with frequent issues reducing overall effectiveness. Hiring standards have deteriorated as well. While the company aspires to be a leader in its space, it lacks innovation and has instead settled into mediocrity. The culture has gone downhill, small perks have all been taken away.
