RecommendsPositive OutlookNo opinion of CEOI have been working at Percolate full-time (More than a year)
Pros
I've had the opportunity to do very meaningful (real) work at Percolate, and gain a lot of responsibility quickly. Teams are lean and things move very quickly, so you have to take on more than you might elsewhere (in a good way!). On top of that, the people are incredible - I believe it myself and hear it over and over again from others. It's an incredibly collaborative environment and true camaraderie is present across the board.
Cons
Lean teams are a double-edged sword - sometimes there's simply too much work to be done, which leaves individuals overworked.

RecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEOI have been working at Percolate full-time (Less than a year)
Pros
Super friendly people. Lots of office events and group outings to blow off steam and socialize. Big enough that things have calmed down some and there's clearly defined process where there should be, but also small enough that there's not too much bureaucracy and there aren't rules just for the sake of having rules. The company is still experiencing growth and making a lot of money so need to worry about it running out of runway at least in the near term. It feels like everyone is on the same team and working together and across departments, not much politics. If you're scared off by the negative reviews from the past don't be, there was a low period for a little while after we cut down headcount to keep our burn rate under control, but the company's been growing stably since then. I joined after all that had already happened and have seen nothing but great things from Percolate.
Cons
Just the usual things you'd encounter when working in a smaller organization. If you need something from another part of the company you might have to be patient because everyone's trying to do as much as possible as quickly as possible but it's a young company so we don't have as many resources as we do aspirations. You might want really want something that'll make your team's life way easier by Q2 but have to wait until Q3 because some other priority came up, that sort of thing.
Advice to Management
Stay focused on strategy, the direction of product development, and recruiting good leaders and executives and the rest should flow from there.

Pros
Everyone is super friendly and welcoming. From my very first day, I felt that I was apart of the Percolate family with people coming up to me from every team. Not only am I challenged on a day to day basis but I love what I do and believe in what were looking to build. Great perks and the office culture is second to none. Highly recommend!
Cons
Fast paced environment may not be for everyone but I personally love it.
Advice to Management
Continue to be transparent about the future of the company

The team is growing in size while also building scalable processes. This helps with communication/sharing of knowledge and education/upskilling in your role.
Great company culture with clubs, perks and events
Transparent and room to grow in your role
It is great to be given responsibility early onCons
Lack of structure/guidance in the beginning. Percolate has since corrected this in a very short time which is great to see.
