Pros

Not sold a pipedream - when I originally accepted the offer here I was joining for a job that would be fast-paced, challenging, but also would offer interesting work and great learning opportunities. 12 months on I can really see the difference in what a year at hx is compared to a year at other jobs. The learning curve is steep, but if you're looking to push yourself and develop in your career there are great opportunities here. Across all teams there are super bright people who are very hardworking - but also a very kind and friendly bunch who will support you through challenging periods.

Cons

Rate of growth has been steep in the last 12 months so that comes with a degree of cultural shift as the company has nearly doubled in that time.

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
