Coupa Software Inc FAQ

Pros

The culture at Coupa is the best part, in my opinion. Everyone from the top down is so willing and eager to help each other be successful. Coupa prides itself on being an upside-down organization (managers supporting their team, rather than ruling) and this is certainly felt. The benefits are fantastic - from being given a generous amount of RSUs upon hire, to matching 401k, plenty of PTO, paid holidays, good healthcare, etc. I truly enjoy working at Coupa.

Cons

Coupa is getting larger every day, but it still feels like a startup. This is both good and bad (as the close knit startup culture is something that I enjoy) but also means that there are some growing pains, and sometimes things are harder than they should be. Not a huge deal, I'm sure everything will eventually get ironed out, and the pros far outweigh any cons.

Pros

- The executive leadership here is solid and it shows. Rob is a visionary CEO and I'm grateful for where he has taken the company. - Our benefits package is the best I've seen

Cons

- People work hard and long hours here, and if you don't manage your work/life balance, no one will. Expect to receive calls during your vacation as well. - Depending who your supporting manager is, be prepared to be on your own. This includes lack of career guidance and advancements as well. - Rapidly acquiring companies creates dysfunctional teams and lack of cohesion across the organization. - Many great talent have left and either continue to leave or are considering doing so. - Because of misalignment in priorities across departments, lack of capacity and heavy processes, it may take years for your projects or ideas to be available to customers. - Base salary below industry standards.
