Pros

- Excellent work-life balance - Friendly and helpful coworkers - Great place to learn more about and make connections in the advertising industry

Cons

- Disorganized behind the scenes: product/engineering is often left scrambling to put together or maintain features that have been promised by sales/CEO. - Minimal opportunities for growth: your role will remain the same your entire time here - Limited opportunities to both give and receive feedback; the onus should not be on the individual employee to schedule a meeting to discuss performance or raise any concerns

Pros

Not much. The company doesn't really know what it's doing.

Cons

Terrible company. 7 founders in a 20 - 30 people company with a couple old timers. It's a zombie company that breaks even. Do join if you want a year of experience and move on or something, but definitely don't waste your time there for too long.

Let's start with the facts: -our business grew 60% last year, is on pace to do the same and is highly profitable (all of our full-time team participate in a profit share plan) -over 250 clients in 30+ countries delivered over 12,000 ad campaigns using Polar's software last year, adoption has grown 100% YoY -the average tenure for people working at the company is 7.5 years (which is rare for any tech company) I am sorry to hear that you did not enjoy your time at the company. I encourage you to share feedback directly with your future employers if you are unhappy. Kunal Gupta CEO
