Pros

Good healthcare benefits and access to Pager app free of charge

Cons

The good people are leaving the company in droves. Employee turn-over is quite high even for a startup. The business development team, for example, has been cut in half because the good ones left after a few months, despite the fact that they could have 25% of their stock options vested had they stayed for few more months. Even the HR department had two people leave within 6 months of getting hired. In engineering, key people who were top performers either left or were let go due to disagreement with upper management. There are people in management who add negative business value to the company and are clueless as to how to fix the organizational mess they have created. The company preaches about its “core values" a lot. However, it is all just branding and never practiced. HR preaches “social justice” and holds training sessions with far-left propaganda material of little to no value. I wish I had taken these reviews seriously when I was deciding on which offer to accept. Like another reviewer said, potential candidates, stay away!

Pros

Decent benefits, HSA match was cool Culture seemed pretty cool at first Regular performance feedback, which was all positive

Cons

Fired with no warning, as were others on the team. Had received positive performance review 4 weeks before being fired for 'performance' and they referred to stuff that had happened over 7 months ago which had not been brought up prior Found out they basically just hired overseas to replace us Cost cutting is fine and defensible business practice, pretending its performance related is not. Be honest. The products were a nightmare. They were so bad. Nothing worked. Sales and Account executives basically thought they were in charge of strategy I wish I never took this job. Product leadership had no teeth or opinion, unless it was agreeing with someone above them.

Thank you for taking the time to share this feedback. We read every review, including the difficult ones. Our product investment — particularly across technology that came in through acquisition — is real and ongoing. Our teams are actively working on it, and we're clear-eyed about the distance still to travel. We also take feedback on leadership decisions and transitions seriously; those moments matter, and we work to handle them with care. We can't address the specifics of any individual's employment here. If you're open to a direct conversation, our People team is available.
