Pros

Free breakfasts, lunches and snacks, nice office

Cons

If you’re a young, 20-something with no responsibilities, nothing to lose and a lifestyle that can accommodate being fired overnight—if someone somewhere in the company decides that’s what they want to—then a job (not a career) at Workable could be for you for a year or so. But if you're looking for a career with a transparent, open and honest company you can trust and where everyone is treated fairly and equally then look elsewhere.

Pros

If you worked here long enough, you learned to read silence like weather. You knew the difference between the quiet of concentration and the quiet of fear. You learned the sound of someone being “taken for a walk”— or the happy confession from a co worker they are leaving. Most companies strategically lay off people. not here. it's one by one. My team sat close together, not out of friendship but out of a strange, shared superstition: maybe if we stayed physically near each other, we’d stay employed together. Maybe proximity meant safety. It never did. Some mornings you’d arrive and find an empty desk where a friend had been yesterday. A monitor black, a chair pushed in too neatly—HR always reset the chairs. The sales leadership in Boston is USELESS. Still, we worked. We always worked. There was a strange loyalty that grew in places like this—not to the company, but to each other. We shared snacks, commiserated in Slack channels that definitely violated policy, and joked about starting a betting pool on who’d be next. “Got a minute?” Anyways, so many people laid off for really petty reasons. Good people disappear without a trace.

Cons

Their lack of financial literacy appears to affect budgeting accuracy.” The CEO’s communication style suggests limited training in leadership frameworks
