Pros
YipitData alt data investor product is the gold standard in the financial community. Good opportunity to become the gold standard in enterprise as well. Really smart product team members who are a pleasure to work with. Flexible vacation and remote work are a big plus.
Kontras
Growing pains. Culture has deteriorated with the company growing though the company makes an honest effort to fix it. Still has not found the solution as can be seen in the glassdoor ratings continuing to dip over time. The layoffs were poorly handled. CEO overoptimistic about company prospects which made the layoffs a surprise. Exacerbated by questionable hiring decisions made this year. Likely to rub people, who lost their colleagues in the layoffs, the wrong way. Organization becoming more complex with more time being spent on administrative stuff / meetings, and less on execution such as product dev, sales etc. Quality of the talent has dipped as the company made a large number of hires the last two years in a tight labor market when the business was growing rapidly. Place becoming more political. Most exec hires from GLG. Feels like CEO wants Yipit to be more like GLG.
