Pros

The culture at Jolt is one of "What you see is what you get", in a good way! Everything from the lack of dress code to the way we interact with customers is all very no-nonsense and straight forward. The expectations of you are high and clear. Most of the leadership consists of the very best men I have ever known. I have an immense amount of respect for them. They show me with every interaction how intelligent, passionate and caring they all are. I am proud to work with them. As a product, Jolt is groundbreaking and infinitely useful to Desk-less Workers. I wish I had had it when I worked in food service. Even within our office, we find ways to use our own product to improve our daily life and productivity.

Cons

Jolt isn't for everyone. One of the company values is to "Do More with Less", and they mean that. You are expected to perform at a high caliber, with few resources at your disposal. In some ways this is motivating; in others, frustrating. Like most tech companies, there is a severe lack of female representation, especially in management. Minority representation has improved, but only slightly.

Pros

I agree with a lot of the other reviews that mention good co-workers. I really enjoyed the team I was working on.

Cons

The executive team is so toxic. I also wonder if there is incompetence or if they just don't care to be any better. I've watched the head of HR completely destroy the great company culture around autonomy. He and the CEO think they need to track every single thing you do every day. Want to be badgered about how many commits you have everyday? Come work here. Want to be rated by people that have no idea how development works? Come work here. Want to be told that investors aren't sure you're worth keeping? Come work here. All that matters to the leadership here is how many dollars they can get from investors, not how to make the company better. I've noticed that in the reviews only sales people have anything positive to say recently. That tracks with my experience here. They were always highlighted and praised in company meetings and we had to bend over to get them features to close contracts. Devs and CS are just taken for granted here. Its a shame because Jolt wouldn't be anywhere without some of the great developers that work here. Things started out ok here in the beginning but over the years all they've done is nose dive. Benefits aren't getting any better, I'd argue they are getting worse. Raises here are terrible if you even get one.
