Pros

decent benefits company paid free healthcare and dental

Cons

Beware: DO NOT WORK AT THIS COMPANY. Cnote is the most toxic work environment I have ever been a part of. First things first: the vast majority of regular employees here are kind people. Unfortunately the senior leadership (hello board! why haven't you removed the co-founders who have no business leading this company?) are completely inept, changing the direction of the company every other day it seems at times, and have created a toxic work environment where folks fear being terminated at any time. Every single employee talks about senior leadership behind their backs FYI. There is bullying and favoritism at play constantly, everything is your fault (not ever the senior leadership's fault), there is no mechanism in place to report this horrific work environment, and every single employee is looking to run as far away as they can as they secretly interview elsewhere. Be prepared to work 24/7 with no respect for boundaries while the senior leadership tries to plug the holes on a fast sinking ship (funding will run out soon and they are bleeding money and making no profit). Stay as far away from this company as you can it is the most miserable toxic work environment I have ever been a part of, my mental health every day is declining further, and every single employee is currently miserable at the mistreatment, intimidation, bullying, and demands from senior leadership. Lastly, it is quite ironic that the so called "values" this company claims to have are the complete opposite of what Cnote actually represents. DO NOT WORK HERE! Company won't be around for very much longer :)

Pros

Unlimited PTO. Insurance Coverage. Decent benefits.

Cons

The founders are there own worse enemy and often feels like they don't even understand what their own company does. They will squeeze everything they can out of their employees without appreciation or recognition. Any failures of this company were because of the founders decisions or lack of.

Pros

Startup that is providing financial innovation in the impact investing and community finance space. Fully remote and distributed team, excellent benefits. Supportive and communicative small team.

Cons

Startup is still in early stages of growth and that requires being nimble to accommodate changes in direction.
