Pros

Proven product-market fit. Great customer retention due to amazing Customer Success team. Decent work/life balance for those who can set boundaries.

Kontras

Year to date, 23 employees with titles Manager or above have departed Iterable. The company calls this "normal" and rarely vocalizes what they've learned and can change from so many tenured departures. Those in the company that are not in a constant state of burnout are either within their first 6mo/1yr or in a leadership role where they can stay oblivious to their team's struggles. Multiple times, engagement surveys have shown an overwhelming number of ICs feel like they haven't been communicated a vision/direction that inspires them or that they don't know what's required of them to succeed at their role. The company started rolling out OKRs 2+ yrs ago however often the deadlines from execs (C-Suite or VP) for finalizing and communicating these OKRs are missed. When they are finalized on time, the OKR may change a few weeks later after the execs have gotten around to getting input from above or laterally. Retros on OKRs from below almost never happen. This all results in a feeling like you don't know what's most important, when you ask for direction, your manager may not know or may change it shortly after, and you're in a perpetual state of busy but not effective. I'm used to HR teams looking out for the company/exec interests but never one so actively hostile towards constructive feedback. Among employees, there's widespread advice to "not trust the People Team". If you report to HR that your manager/exec is toxic, abusive, or hostile... you can expect to get gaslit or have that "investigation" get swept under the rug. Before I get the HR generic response on this review, I implore them to FIRST ask their HRBP team to reach out to the departments they cover, make a safe space, LISTEN to the feedback, and be totally transparent about your priorities. Don't ask me to "reach out to you", you've already violated that trust.

Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback! It’s great to hear that the shift in our leadership and the focus on moving faster is resonating with you. We are committed to building a culture of high performance and ensuring our promotion processes are fair and objective. Our new leadership expectations are a big part of that, designed to give us a shared standard for what "great" looks like at Iterable. I also appreciate your advice on staying close to our customers; that focus is exactly what we mean when we talk about our core value of "running as one." Thanks again for being part of the team and for your honest perspective. -Jim Bartolomea, CPCO

Pros

Iterable is one of those rare companies where the culture isn't a slide in an all-hands deck. It's something you actually feel every single day. There's a genuine warmth between teams, a "we're figuring this out together" energy that never tips into chaos because the leadership knows how to hold the room. The exec team is sharp, transparent, and treats employees like adults . You get context on decisions, not just directives. What's stood out most is the tangible investment in people: career development conversations that actually happen, managers who advocate for their teams, and a consistent signal that your growth matters beyond your current role. For anyone who's been burned by companies that say the right things but don't follow through, Iterable is different.

Kontras

Growth at this stage of the company means priorities shift, and teams need to be comfortable with some ambiguity. Processes are still maturing in certain areas, which can occasionally slow execution. If you need a perfectly structured environment to do your best work, there's an adjustment period. But for the right person, that ambiguity is the opportunity.

I really appreciate you sharing such a thoughtful perspective on what it’s like to lead here at Iterable. It’s great to hear that our focus on transparency and "treating employees like adults" is being felt. Providing the "why" behind our decisions is something the executive team takes very seriously. You hit on a key point regarding the trade-off between speed and structure; while we're working hard to mature our systems, I love the mindset that the current ambiguity is actually an opening for talented people to shape our future. We are fully committed to keeping our foot on the gas when it comes to investing in our people and protecting the cultural intentionality that sets us apart. -Jim Bartolomea, CPCO
