Pros

Work-from-home flexibility appears to be limited to specific roles, such as Product Support Specialist positions, and often requires working in US shift timings, which may not suit everyone. If you are experienced professional never join this organisation, think 1000 times before joining. Managers will have direct access of your system every time. There are concerns around micromanagement, including close monitoring and frequent oversight by managers. In some cases, this may feel like limited autonomy, which can impact the overall work experience.

Cons

Areas of Concern The hiring and onboarding process lacks transparency. The company conducted multiple rounds of assessments and three virtual interviews to hire experienced candidates (5–10 years). However, after joining, a product-based assessment was introduced about a month later, which had not been communicated during the hiring or onboarding stages. Based on this internal evaluation, only one candidate was retained (reportedly at a lower salary) out of three, while the others were Fired. This raises concerns about fairness, job security, and clarity in the hiring process. Additionally, there appears to be a lack of structured HR policies and consistent processes. Decision-making seems heavily manager-driven, with limited visibility into formal guidelines or employee protections. The pattern of frequent hiring followed by quick terminations may create uncertainty and impact employee trust.

Pros

Remote work is really the only pro that this company has left.

Cons

I have had the pleasure of working for Blend for multiple years and have witnessed a shift in their priorities from employee-wellbeing to profit. Upper management will take your resources to do your job, replace them with cheaper products, and then complain about your performance. You’d be lucky to be one of the ones who makes it past one of their many layoffs as well. You will put your blood, sweat, and tears into this job and will not be rewarded. Measly raises and unfair pay is a huge issue as well, putting employer morale so low. People are paid below half of their market value and expected to keep their heads above water.
