FLYR Reviews

Pros

Opportunity and support from leadership

Cons

None to report to date

Pros

Nothing expect latest technologies and pay.

Cons

They don't clarity or planning about the project. With out proper plan they recruited lot of people and played with all people's life by laying off.

Pros

Lots of input, tons of growth opportunity, competitive pay and benefits

Cons

Moving fast as a startup means a lot of change and requires flexibility

Pros

Fast growth, interesting problems, general atmosphere was pleasant and upbeat. Lots of silliness between coworkers with games/activities to keep the stress levels acceptable. Offices were comfortable, and the hardware provided was nice as well.

Cons

Management shifted around a lot, leading to confusing requirements. Sometimes items that were accepted from the client were not communicated to engineering / development, leading to back and forth on how feasible items were despite already promising the delivery.

Pros

Good pay for a series C startup. Well funded.

Cons

There are systemic problems at FLYR right now (and for at least the past 9+ months): - The CEO does directly pressure employees to post positive reviews on Glassdoor, as a previous poster mentioned. He’s asked me and several of my teammates to do so. So take those glowing reviews with a grain of salt, and try to connect with people who have actually worked here before you consider joining. The toxicity is real. - Executive leadership has very little emotional intelligence and generally have no idea how to lead people. Which is kind of important for executive leaders to know how to do. They can’t lead people. That’s not good. - Loud voices who drink the Kool-Aid and “speak airline industry” have a disproportionate influence that suppresses a growing crew of technical talent who just want to contribute and grow. - I have never experienced a culture of micromanagement like this. It’s so ingrained in the FLYR way that you start to think it’s normal. It’s not normal, and it’s nightmarish. Starting from the CEO himself, it cascades down. If you want to feel empowered and inspired to contribute and innovate, you’ll be miserable here.

Pros

- Lots of data science work in every job - Company is new-ish and so they are always willing to accept new ideas

Cons

- Things change very rapidly since the company is still growing

Pros

Poised for success Flexibility with WFH Decent benefits Enthusiastic team members

Cons

Some of the leaders needs to avoid personal preferences Compensation is below market Stop nickel and diming your hires

Pros

The Company have great culture, feel supported by manager and seniors when I work at there. I’ve met some of the most talented people ever during my time at Flyr, it really is inspiring to be exposed to the creative and sometimes world-changing things our customers design and make with our operating revenue management system.

Cons

No cons to share with

Pros

- Everyone across all positions that I've worked with is brilliant at their job - New leadership is committed to quality, innovation, and company culture - Very high growth, many opportunities internally and we are encouraged to transfer for our development - Whatever mistakes were made by past leadership & toxic employees are being learned from, I have not seen/heard any fighting, deceipt, or disrespect - Strong equity offers

Cons

- I was hired during the pandemic and people are spread across many geos, so onboarding & a feeling of connection to the company were lacking. This has been improving drastically in the last few months post-pandemic with employee events & new offices - 401k match is lower than larger companies

Pros

- Growing Startup with huge potential - Great colleagues who are excited to see where the company goes - Lots of opportunity to get involved and take on new projects

Cons

- Still a growing company with the growing pains that come with that - Sometimes difficult to feel connected to my team as we are a global team, and don't see each other in person that often
