Incredibly down-to-earth & intelligent individuals who make up the major landscape of the team. Sentry also has a great product that is really making traction in the Developer Productivity space.

No major cons that don't pertain to every other start-up at this current size or stage.

- 4.0Jan 25, 2023SalesFormer Employee, more than 1 year
Pros
Really nice people and culture. Lots of coaching and learning opportunities. Great office and flexible hybrid-remote working options. Good food, the company cares about employees, everything is very high-end. Good work-life balance, lots of weekends. People are open and management is approachable.
Cons
No 401k matching. Some departments really lack diversity and hire only people of the same gender and race. High turnover in the sales teams. Very few folks overpass 1 year and a half. Not a sales-led company, so sales motion is in a very early stage. Lots of pressure on the sales teams and very few support from the other teams and the management.

Pros
Sentry delivers on work-life balance for employees, paired with working for a company which truly delivers value for its customers. The internal focus on serving developers and on open source is very real. Sentry's culture is friendly and people are generally helpful when engaged. The SF office is a pleasant place to work from!
Cons
At times, there can seem to be a lack of ownership of projects.

- Pace of development slowed down significantly despite additional headcount in the past 6 months. Shows how difficult it can be to scale efficiently. I think more recent momentum has been good

Each team has their own unique chemistry and dynamic and the important thing is that since teams are constantly growing in size the culture is constantly evolving to be inviting to everyone

Start-ups are intense and if you're not ready to be held accountable for the results of your work then a start-up may not be it
