Great experience through my interviews - my recruiter and coordinator prepared me for every step of the process and answered my questions as they came up! Interview team asked me great questions and really wanted to get to know me as a person . In the time leading up to my first day, the People team and my manager helped me get prepared for my first day and also answered any questions that I had, the experience couldn't have been better! I've been at Bitly for a few months now and I absolutely love it here. The people I get to work with are wonderful and love to collaborate. I am very supported by my manager and given the opportunity to grow and challenge myself on a daily basis. Our leadership team is AMAZING, genuinely cares about overall well-being and is always easy to communicate with whenever it's needed. So very happy to be here!
Cons
We're still growing! Not really a "Con", but it's good to know!

Toxic and Top Heavy Leadership

Cons
Back to back meetings with no time to get work done. Very slow to make decisions. They keep hiring more and more senior executives from large companies without staffing for key junior and mid level roles. Feels like the culture moved from one of accountability and getting things done towards one of just pushing the tactical work to overworked junior people so they can get the spotlight. Back office employees are treated like second class citizens and GTM and Tech are held to a much lower standard and get all the glory. I have never seen a company with so much turnover in HR over the past couple of years and is very concerning. Toxic white male leadership at the top that rule by favoritism vs facts and exclusion vs inclusion no matter what they say they’re doing for diversity. Very fake culture - you have to act like everything is great and that you drank the kool aid or they label you as problematic. They’re not looking to actually improve anything with their culture other than surface things that get them great place to work awards for bragging rights instead of addressing causes for turnover.
