Pros

I joined Rocketrip end of 2016. Of all the moves I've made in my career, this has been the absolute highlight. Every day, I get to work with a highly intelligent and driven team who inspire me to keep raising the bar. Everyone is incredibly nice and takes the time to get to know you. What makes our team unique is we all truly share a passion for the product and service we are building and even though we like to have fun, we take our work incredibly seriously. There is a ton of cross-functional collaboration happening because generally people are excited to contribute beyond their wheelhouse and are amped about making an impact. I've seen many of my colleagues (including myself!) take big career leaps here which has been extremely exciting! With the company's evolving needs as we grow, it's been great to see management looking inwards and ensuring they focus on our internal talent development.

Cons

We're extremely fast paced and often times you will wear multiple hats. This is awesome if you can keep up with the pace and are looking to expand/ diversify your skill set, however, this environment is not for everyone. Better coffee options could easily turn this into a pro!

We took this feedback to heart and now have an espresso machine, so our coffee options are better than ever! In all seriousness, though, we appreciate you taking the time to write this review. The fact that we have cross-functional opportunities available, allowing our team members to broaden their individual skill sets in a comfortable environment, is something we’re proud of. We’re happy to hear you’ve been able to grow your career with us and we hope you continue to take big leaps!

Pros

The company culture was amazing and I really learned a lot in my very position at a SaaS company. I will take a wealth of information with me onto my next job.

Cons

Company downsized after Covid slow down, which was a bummer but I understand!

Pros

Transparency is core to senior management. We have a monthly all-hands where we get updates from every team in the organization and we engage in in-depth conversations about the company and the direction we're going. The people. This is a company where we can all put our heads down and knock out high-quality work, and at the end of the day go to Happy Hour together or play ping pong. We all want the company to succeed and we want to do it together. Dan, the CEO, exudes excitement and passion for the space that you can't help feeling as well. He makes time to speak to employees at every level and understand the things people love about working here and what could be improved and then acting on it. Being a leader in a new industry leads to a lot of interesting challenges and projects that we need to approach with creativity and precision.

Cons

Being a leader in a new industry leads to a lot of interesting challenges and projects that we need to approach with creativity and precision. Working at a startup means that changes can happen very quickly, and sometimes without necessarily explaining the reasoning beforehand. Sometimes it takes a nudge to identify culture changes we want to see to senior management. But once they know, they act quickly.

Transparency across all levels is important to us, and it’s great to know that’s resonating with you and the overall team! We’re also glad to hear that Dan’s enthusiasm for our product and this company is tangible. We want everyone to feel excited about and invested in Rocketrip!
