Pros

Remote work, can work from abroad.

Cons

First, don’t believe what they tell you in the interview. Half of what was said and promised in the interview process turned out to be lies, whether it was about the role or employment conditions (expect shady things to occur). Also expect unpaid overtime and being asked to do the work of others without proper training or support, and of course no actual opportunity to grow. Leadership is completely out of touch. They layoff 200 people and then flaunt their money on luxurious business trips, while asking people to work more to compensate for the people who are gone. There’s no clear direction or accountability for anything. It feels like being in a sinking ship and waiting to be taken by the next wave of layoff.

Pros

- Seriously smart, kind coworkers - good culture even though remote, offsites and office if you want them - real ownership and trust at the IC level - C-suite and leaders are genuine and accessible - Proudly being remote-first seems to be rarer and rarer these days, no RTO anxiety - Time off, recharge days and sabbaticals are great

Cons

- No longer covering 100% of healthcare costs, which was a very nice benefit - Lots of new people means it's harder to get to know people outside your teams - Things change, fast. Buckle up.

Pros

Working at Webflow has been one of the most energizing chapters of my career so far. It’s fast-paced and high standards, but in a way that pushes you to grow. One thing I’m proud of is how much we’ve invested in enablement and setting teams up for success. Over the past year, there’s been a huge focus on building structured onboarding, better training, and more thoughtful support for our internal teammates. It’s not “figure it out yourself.” You can feel the intentionality behind it. On the sales side Webflow can feel like a technical product at first. But that’s also what makes it powerful and so loved by it's user base. Once you understand the value, it becomes a natural and compelling story to tell. The product is strong, and when customers see it in action, it clicks. Selling something you genuinely believe in makes a big difference. Growth opportunities are also very real here. If you raise your hand and take initiative, you’ll be trusted with meaningful work. I’ve seen people expand their roles quickly, move across teams, and step into leadership opportunities because performance and ownership are rewarded. The team has grown a lot, and in a remote environment, sometimes that can be hard but I’ve been impressed by how connected it feels! People are thoughtful, collaborative, and generous with context. There’s a strong documentation culture, open communication, and leaders who share the “why” behind decisions. Overall, Webflow is a place where motivated people can have real impact, grow quickly, and work alongside smart, kind teammates.

Cons

can be slack heavy at times, but that's normal for a remote-first org

Thanks for taking the time to write this, especially the detail on enablement. That investment has been deliberate, and it's good to hear it's showing up in how people experience their first months here. Building a strong foundation shouldn't be left to chance, particularly with a product that has real depth to it. Glad the growth piece resonates, too. Raising your hand and being trusted with meaningful work is how things should work, and we try to make that real at every level. On remote connection: we've learned a lot over the years. Operating as remote-first has pushed us to build real infrastructure around documentation, integrated tooling, structured onboarding, and transparent communication. That work has made us sharper. And we've also learned that some things don't have a remote substitute. There are moments where being in the same room matters, and we're deliberate about creating those. The model isn't perfect, but it's ours, and we keep making it better. Slack volume is a real trade-off with being remote-first. We're always looking at ways to make that more manageable, Slack me if you have ideas 😅 Appreciate you sharing your experience. - Mike, SVP People
