Pros
The office is in a nice location downtown. There are some very talented, hardworking employees. The company raised a $25 million Series B in December, so they have plenty of money to invest in hiring talent and expanding their partnerships.
Cons
Phil has been a series of contradictions since it closed its last round of funding. Instead of using this money to promote people from within and pay their junior level employees fair wages, the new executives have started to lay off some of their longest-tenured employees, while hiring their friends and family members from their past companies. On top of that, the CEO has hired an executive team that is completely remote, and thus very out of touch with what's going on in the home office in San Francisco. As such, most people in San Francisco now have bosses that are remote, so everyone is able to hide from the CEO, whom everyone's a little scared of and is extremely difficult to work with. Maybe the new Head of Talent (yep, she's remote, too) will be able to affect some positive change. Beyond office politics, Phil offers: -below-market pay to their San Francisco employees -ten days PTO -inability for SF employees to work remotely -no transportation stipend (they quietly did away with that)
