Pros

The work is largely interesting

Cons

Far too much bureaucratic overhead and poor technology leadership. People disappear frequently, with no acknowledgment from management. Salaries are below average for similar work.

Hey there, Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I'm sorry to hear that your time at hyperexponential wasn't what you hoped for. It's great to know you found the work interesting, though — that sounds about right for life at hyperexponential. Bureaucratic overhead is not something we’re fans of. When we hear about it, we work on it quickly to keep our processes, checks and balances purposeful. Our technology leadership has been through some change and we’re now really proud of how things are shaping up! We’re a scaling business, so change in all of it’s forms is expected at every corner. We recognise the importance of addressing departures transparently, which is why we’ve introduced new communication practices. When it comes to salaries, we know how important it is to stay competitive. Salaries are part of our compensation and benefits work which has seen some very meaningful updates recently. That said, we always value feedback and will always look at industry and market data to inform our pay structures. Thanks again for your review. If you want to chat about anything else, feel free to contact me at people@hyperexponential.com. Kind regards, Rotem Ben-David Head of People Ops and Performance

Pros

i can’t think of any

Cons

The company boasts its impressive values, but they don’t apply to the leadership team. Expect to be micromanaged and pushed hard to meet goals, without any structure, training, or strategy to get you there. The culture is nowhere to be found. The office is dead silent and lacks the camaraderie you’d expect from a startup with strong values and “identity”. Any attempt to impact the culture is met with resistance. Expect overcommunication and endless meetings repeating high level ideas with little time remaining to actually do the work. Thats because everyones going through the motions, but very few know what they’re actually doing. If you’re good at bragging about small achievements, you’ll do great here. If you’re hoping to be intellectually challenged and to make an impact, I’d look elsewhere.

Every review offers a perspective, but some say more about the experience of misalignment than about the culture itself. It’s clear this was not the right environment for you. That happens. Our culture is fast-moving, direct, and built on trust and autonomy. It works best for people who are self-driven, comfortable with ambiguity, and motivated by high standards. For others, it can feel unstructured or intense. That’s not a flaw in either direction, just a mismatch. For those it does work for, it really works. We have so many hxers doing impactful work, growing fast, supporting one another, and helping us grow in many meaningful ways. We appreciate your time with us and wish you the best in finding a role and culture that’s the perfect match for you. Ash Rama, VP People
