Pros
- A fulfilling mission you can be passionate about - Good financial trajectory - Many opportunities to make an impact
Cons
- NO DIVERSITY: women and POC? RUN, DON'T WALK. Recruitment is sus and all I see getting hired at the top are white men.. - NEPOTISM: People at the top are friends or family. 'Outsiders' are viewed with suspicion and actively undermined. As a matter of fact, these 'friends of the CEO' are woefully under qualified for the roles they're in, which is obvious if you have eyes and makes it so much worse. These same under qualified individuals are praised constantly... - EGO EGO EGO: Wanna hear about my degrees?? Brown-nosing is heavily rewarded, especially if you sacrifice every boundary you have. Speaking of which, - NO RESPECT FOR BOUNDARIES: If you need validation for working more hours than anyone ever in human history, you'll be right at home. Very culty and obviously unsustainable or supported by science. - CLOSED MINDSET: Again, new ideas are dismissed unless you have Rank or are somebody's favorite - POOR LEADERSHIP: Due to the echo chamber of nepotism, new ideas are dismissed if they can't contextualize... which is a lot of ideas because this company is immature and doesn't have good processes in place - AGGRESSIVE & HYPOCRITICAL CULTURE: People feel empowered to railroad teammates just to get their way in the name of 'meeting producing deadlines' but it's usually due to poor time management. If you push for accountability (you know, to avoid repetitive and unnecessary fire drills?), you are gaslit into a corner and slapped with the company's so-called values. It's insidious and if you index high on authenticity, you will lose your mind. Again, very unfriendly for women. - POOR PAY: Not competitive at all, especially for all the FREE overtime. It's robbery - REMOVAL OF PERKS: No more catered lunches and demanding return to the office anyway... good luck with that
