Pros

- Work from home available, if you like it - Decent benefits

Cons

- A typical startup attempting to scale aggressively without the necessary resources, budget, or infrastructure to support that growth. - Little to no onboarding, training, or support is provided to help employees succeed in their roles. - Leadership and management practices feel outdated. While support and development opportunities are limited, there is no shortage of pressure, passive-aggressive communication, and condescending behavior. - Work-life balance is non-existent. Meetings are scheduled as early as 6:00 a.m. and as late as 9:00 p.m., with an expectation that employees will attend regardless of personal commitments. - The organization lacks structure and clear processes. There are few established workflows, systems, or resources, leaving employees to figure things out on their own while working long hours, including evenings and holidays. - The company appears to be understaffed and lacks adequate tools and automation, resulting in a significant amount of manual and operational work. - HR support is minimal. Despite promoting a "people-first" culture, concerns about burnout and workload are often met with a lack of empathy or support. - Priorities and KPIs changed frenquently depending on the management perception of what was possible than by available data, resources, budget or realistic planning. - High level of turnover. People disappear with little or no communication, creating uncertainty. - The culture strongly rewards overwork and promotes a workaholic mindset, making it difficult to maintain healthy boundaries.

Pros

Met some great people, unlimited PTO, remote-first environment. Benefits were good (starts on your first day) but salary is okay, not competitive. We had an engagement team who really tried to change and better the culture by planning different events and such, so that was nice. I do think they were regular associates in different teams who volunteered to do this, but not sure if they were rewarded or compensated for this additional work. I hope they were.

Cons

Feels like leadership lives in their own bubble, My VP wasn’t a contributor to the work but off doing some other things. Especially since we were short staffed, it would've been great to see them contribute more to offload work from the associates. I’m not completely sure what they were doing, but I didn’t see their impact on the team. My director was all over the place too. It was hard to pinpoint if we were reaching our KPIs, they were always changing. High turnover and layoffs. And takes a long time for them to backfill, so get ready to be assign other responsibilities of other roles with no additional support, salary increase, or title change. I didn’t see a lot of promotions at this company. Overall, high expectations, high stress, little reward from my experience.

Pros

Good, but lots of structural changes and lay offs.

Cons

Culture died with acquisition. Vibe became less organic and more plastic.
