Pros

Excellent company culture, management prioritizes personal and professional development of each employee and emphasizes good cross functional communication. Frequent 1:1s enable management to learn what motivates each employee to get the best out of everyone, this company really gets that one management size does not fit all, actively combats burnout and leads by example with excellent culture and work-life balance practices. The focus on the experience and needs of the customer is outstanding, and leadership's ability to incorporate customer and employee feedback into overall company goals is astounding and a pleasure to be a part of.

Cons

Working remotely means we don't get to spend much time physically together, but this is not felt in the day-to-day as communication is constantly flowing. There are also multiple opportunities throughout the year for everyone to travel and get face time with both team members and customers, but is tough to justify given recent health concerns with travel along with the cost of flying too many people around the world.

Pros

The sense of community and camaraderie at Distru is second to none. The engineering is egoless and supportive. There are no heroes or losers, only the team bound together helping one another. The HR department went out of their way to organize special get-togethers where we could socialize "outside of work", playing online games and having philosophical discussions. Good luck finding another company that does that!

Cons

Being fully remote meant that I was never able to meet my colleagues in person. I wish I could have.

Pros

Lots of companies these days say they care about the well-being of their employees, and that mental health is a priority. But I’ve worked at companies that still nudge you to go back to work to “help the company”, even though you’ve told them you’ve been feeling like crap lately. When I told mgmt that I was feeling low energy lately, they didn’t hesitate to let me take time off. When my health issues persisted, they let me work less hours and work hours that were suitable for me. This gave me the time to heal quickly and stress free. No time did they add pressure on me to speed up my recovery, even though there were market pressures to do so. This is a company that truly cares about the well-being of their employees. As we’ve seen lately, that’s a very prized quality.

Cons

Like most remote-only companies, your social life will mostly be fulfilled outside of work (no after work drinks). And like many early-stage startups, there’s less structure and clear processes.

Pros

Remote Work Cannabis Industry Decent Pay

Cons

Sloppy + Unorganized Strapped for cash Over promise, Under deliver
