Pros

Competitive pay and decent benefits.

Cons

This company positions itself as a “tech company,” but that couldn’t be further from reality. Leadership lacks vision, experience, and any meaningful strategy. There is no clear roadmap, no long-term planning, and no consistent execution. Unsurprisingly, turnover is extremely high, with people cycling in and out on a near-quarterly basis. The product itself is fundamentally broken, and the company has a poor reputation within the cannabis industry. Many industry professionals do not respect this organization due to unethical behavior and overpromising while underdelivering. That should have been a red flag from the start. Employees who are outspoken, proactive, or who suggest improvements are quickly shut down or labeled as “difficult.” There is little to no respect for people who are genuinely trying to elevate the company, improve processes, or empower teams. Success here seems limited to those who keep their heads down, ask no questions, and avoid challenging leadership. The culture is very much a boys’ club. Friends of the CEO occupy C-suite and leadership roles despite having little to no formal business or operational experience. Decisions are driven by favoritism rather than data, expertise, or best practices. From a sales perspective, transparency is a major issue. Data is routinely hidden or restricted to mask poor performance. Sales reports can disappear without notice, and commission payments are treated as optional rather than earned. Commission checks may be withheld at any time under the guise of “performance incentives,” creating a lack of trust and financial instability for employees. Overall, this is not a place for professionals looking for growth, transparency, or ethical leadership. Anyone considering a role here should proceed with extreme caution.

I have nothing but good things to say. I would have stayed in my role, but my wife got a job that required us to move.

None. The company is well on track for success.

Pros

I’ve read many of the reviews here from both current and former employees, and while I respect everyone’s individual experience, I can only speak to my own. Weedmaps is filled with incredibly smart, passionate people who genuinely care about the industry and the company’s success. It is absolutely a fast-paced and constantly evolving environment, but much of that comes with the nature of the cannabis industry itself. During my interview process, the teams were very transparent about the startup culture, the pace of change, and the level of adaptability expected. If you thrive in dynamic environments, enjoy solving problems creatively, and are comfortable moving quickly, Weedmaps can be a great place to grow. If you prefer highly structured environments with slower change, it may not be the right fit for you.

Cons

One area where I do agree with some of the feedback shared in other reviews is around company-wide communication and visibility from leadership. I would appreciate more insight into what different teams across Weedmaps are working toward, as well as a clearer understanding of the company’s long-term vision and direction. That said, I also understand that open forums can sometimes become overly focused on negativity, which can make productive communication more difficult. I’d still love to see more consistent opportunities for transparent updates and alignment across the organization.
