Pros
- Super flexible time off and work from home days, as well as maternity/ paternity leave. If you have young kids, this company is great for you. - They try to be inclusive of all cultures during holidays. - They're very aware of gender pronouns and try to stand against conventional gender roles. - Managers and executives are very accessible. They work alongside people and stay humble, which sets a nice tone for the company. - Good core values (nominally)
Kontras
- Monetary compensation waaay under market value. - Because the company isn't exactly start-up size anymore, it's REALLY hard to move around internally. Not great for people just starting out in their careers who need the flexibility and need to gain a variety of experiences. - Upward mobility is also a battle depending on your team. They prefer to hire externally. - Management is new and inexperienced. - Not great at really understanding where underrepresented people are coming from. There's a lot of explaining you'll have to do to coworkers and managers, since most managers are not part of underrepresented groups. This was probably the most frustrating part. - The company talks a good game about transparency, but I didn't ever feel like I got honest answers when I asked questions.
