Pros
Flexible work schedule (but this is standard for most startups, you have to set your boundaries) Fluidity and ability to own your role (loved my work, hated the work environment) The actual team (excluding CEO/CFO) are absolutely wonderful people Great access to an awesome community of women They are *trying* with the hire of a new COO, either it will help or the CEO & CFO will drive her effectively insane. TBD
Cons
The culture created by management is so toxic that employees deal with a mild form of PTSD upon exit. No, I'm very serious. Anxiety is rampant, you constantly have to defend yourself and your work, management is erratic, shockingly incompetent, wholly untrustworthy and has demonstrated time and time again that they do not hold their employees' best interests at heart. The company dropped down to 4 employees from 20+ in a year's time. Startups have generally high turnover, but this is abnormal. They bring in young women under the guise that they will be empowered and instead demean and disrespect them until they are brought to tears. Again, I am serious. Coworkers have literally been driven to tears over nonsense by the CFO. There is no real vision and guidance from CEO, she literally operates on a whim. Save yourself the trouble and pursue another opportunity. It's maddening and not conducive to personal and professional growth. Lastly, the positive reviews on the Parity Partners glassdoor page are all written by interns or an internal teammate per the CEO's demand. No one has left with a positive experience working here. If you do decide to work here for some reason, I advise you stay a year, build connections in the community then swiftly exit.
