Pros

I enjoyed the people and my role. I got to touch almost every aspect of the business and learned a significant amount in my time with the company. It led me to an Executive position elsewhere and the experience gained was invaluable to me.

Cons

I have no cons to share.

Pros

Great work environment including free breakfast, free snacks, tons of super nice people and lots of dogs running around. Good separation of developers and content creators leaves employees free to perform. They seem to really care about their employees and want them to perform to their fullest potential.

Cons

It's not your typical 9-5; 8:30 - 5:30 is the expected norm. In the beginning it was more about job performance and staying from 9:30-7 or 10:00 - 7 was appreciated. It changed while I was there and became a reason for dismissal.

Thank you for sharing your experience. We truly do care about all of our teammates and appreciate your feedback. For what it's worth, we do not have an 8:30-5:30 expected norm. And it's very much about impact over effort as it's always been here (or we hope anywhere), but if we were to have a genuine conversation about this particular situation and actual time of day/night being referenced in this review, the 9:30-7 or 10-7 reference would actually be 10:00'ish-5 or 10:30'ish-5:30p regularly which we can say was not cool since there was very little and inconsistent communication about these personal needs. It is beside the point that we are talking about a Manager and one of the team's defined leaders who would then not be able to partake in our standup meetings (which has since shifted to afternoons). This was really bad signaling to the rest of our team and raised lots of questions from everyone. We understand that talented software engineers can choose where they spend their time and we're supportive. This was a unique situation where it was best for both parties to grow in different directions and we believe the company communicated frequently and patiently about the cons listed in this review. Thank you for all of your contributions to Blitsy and, as you know, we are wishing you the best and want you to be happy. Best regards, Ross
