Pros

The company's got solid product-market fit and is making money. There's a bunch of great folks working here who are not only nice but good at what they do. Checkr cares about its mission of a fairer future. The pay can be good if you know how to ask for it when you start. Good at what they do for gig companies.

Cons

The company struggles with weak planning and ineffective leadership at the top. There's a real gap between the executive team and what's actually happening day-to-day. There's been a high turnover in several top executive positions, which really says a lot. Decisions are rushed and often lack careful thought. Transparency needs to be a give-and-take; it's important to actually do something with the feedback from employees. There have been missed chances to create a strong, inclusive culture and to value diversity. Raises are pretty much a rarity. This is not a tech company, it's a background check company with some tech features.

Pros

Great insurance. Learning Stipends, etc

Cons

-Senior leadership only cares about what is new and shiny. -They treat AI like a religion. Forcing everyone to use AI for everything as though we don't realize that the end goal is to eliminate our roles - All Hands Meetings every month where Senior Leadership pats themselves on the back while ignoring any existing issues. - Support is treated like a necessary evil instead of a fundamental part of doing business. Would prefer to ship the roles overseas or replace with AI - Extremely high attrition for Senior Leadership.
