Pros

The Tech Team is made up of very smart and humble people, which you can learn a lot from. The entire company is taking a data-driven approach to doing business, so there are less philosophical discussions but more real, impactful and informed work being done. The top management team is very transparent about how the business is going. We also get internal training sessions from the top management team, on various business topics, which is very helpful to people interested in starting a business on their own at some point. We're growing very fast so there are days when I feel overwhelmed. It's good that I can take short breaks and play with the puppies in the office and recharge. It had a huge positive effect on me!

Cons

I can't think of any

Pros

Working at Rover has made me more appreciative over time, not less. Leadership is thoughtful, capable, and accessible. My coworkers are smart, curious, and genuinely good people—I learn from them every day. The team takes Rover’s values seriously and puts people first. The product isn’t perfect, but there’s real momentum to improve, modernize, and deliver more value to customers. It’s refreshing to work somewhere that does good work with good people, without sacrificing work-life balance to get there. I’m grateful for the experience—and aware it’s set a high bar for whatever comes next.

Cons

No workplace is perfect, and Rover isn’t an exception—but the downsides aren’t significant enough to be dealbreakers, in my opinion, especially if you’re looking for a company operating at our current stage and level of maturity.
