Pros

The stock options are decent

Cons

Easily the worst culture I've experienced There's constant turnover, frequent firings and role eliminations and very little sense of stability. Leadership is inexperienced and doesn't know what they're doing and culture is harsh and cruel. Saw multiple people who got let go or quit who had only been with the company for a couple months. Can't think of anyone in any department that was happy or wasn't worked to the bone Advancement and stability are driven more by being bros with leadership than by actual performance or results.

Pros

I love the team I work with, and the work-life balance is great. I've learned a lot while building impactful products. The culture is warm and emphasizes gratitude. I wasn't sure accounting would be an interesting domain to build software for, but it's turned out to be surprisingly engaging. I've worked at a lot of startups, and this has been one of the best experiences I've had so far.

Cons

Comp is good, but not great.

Pros

The product fit is good

Cons

Where do I start? This place talks a huge game about caring for customers and partners, but that energy doesn't exist for employees at all. It's new revenue at all costs; nobody cares about the relationships you already built or the people managing them. People get let go out of nowhere, no PIP, no real conversation, just gone. I've seen people crying in the bathroom, burnout is not an exaggeration here.... It's the epitome of bro culture. The culture rewards the people who nod along and don't push back. Speak up or disagree with leadership, and you're suddenly a problem. It's not a merit thing; it's a loyalty thing. Don't work here if you want to be creative or drive real impact; they only really listen to a handful of leaders who are, frankly, toxic. Unless you're totally fine shutting up and being a robot, look elsewhere.
