Fantastic team and work-life balance, engaging projects - Senior Software Engineer Rillet Employee Review

Working at Rillet has genuinely felt like a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to help build something meaningful alongside an incredibly talented team. The culture is one of the strongest I’ve experienced, collaborative, ambitious, and filled with people who truly care about each other’s success. There’s a huge amount of ownership and growth potential here, especially for people who are excited to take initiative and make an impact early. Leadership is extremely supportive and approachable, and some of the best people I’ve worked with in the industry. It’s rare to find a company this early where the product, team, and opportunity all align so well.

Because the company is growing so quickly, change is constant and things can evolve fast, which may feel uncomfortable for people who prefer a lot of structure or predictability. That said, it also creates a huge opportunity to learn, grow, and have a real impact on the direction of the company.

The product fit is good

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.
