Pros

It's rare to find so many smart, talented, caring, and fun people existing under one logo, but that's BoomPop. My colleagues are hands down my favorite part of working here. The combination of start-up culture and the events world can be stressful and demanding, but being surrounded by such incredible people makes every challenge easier to overcome. Our quarterly offsites, hosted in different locations across the country, are a blast and an opportunity to connect and bond in person. Each week we have a tradition of giving out a Unicorn Award, which we translated to a Unicorn Ball for a recent offsite. We word hard, but we play hard too.

Cons

Prioritizing mental/physical health and personal lives can be challenging in a fast-paced environment, with heavy workloads across time zones. Remaining flexible, comfortable with change, and pro-active around your own well-being is a must!

Pros

Supportive, passionate, and competent team. Work feels genuinely impactful, and leadership takes every opportunity to be transparent and enable every team member to succeed. To top it off: - Competitive compensation and benefits - Highly flexible remote work policies - Amazing management - Cutting edge technology - GenAI that aids redundant and outdated processes that humans don't want to handle rather than GenAI for replacing human creativity and freedom

Cons

It's a fast-paced early-stage startup. Be wary of shifting goalposts, shifting work demands, and the other usual growth stage hurdles that young companies face. "Fail fast, learn faster" in the age of AI-assisted programming also means suffering the same pitfalls that many other companies are facing today - especially when it comes to tradeoffs for velocity vs. tech debt.
