Pros
- It was formerly the people in lower to middle management roles; they have left - Unlimited PTO - Tremendous learning opportunities when working within a poorly run company - If you have entrepreneurial aspirations, you can gain a lot of confidence in your own ability and potential knowing that Workrise managed to secure a $2.9bn valuation as a tech company without tech
Kontras
- Shotgun blast approach to decision making since the company's founding has led to a disjointed mess of systems, strategies, and employees, all of which change often - There is no product. This is not a tech company. This is an oil & gas staffing company, at best a "tech-enabled" staffing company; that tech is Google Sheets and a smattering of Tableau - This company was founded and funded on narrative, and it is extremely challenging to work for a VC-backed company whose investors are realizing that a narrative will not generate a return while in the late stages of ownership. - This company has been in existence for 8 years and is seemingly moving backwards, struggling to survive, and hemorrhaging talent
