        If you are not an engineer, there is a chance that you will be treated like a 2nd class citizen, especially by the founder.

              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.

                    Cons

                    - 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

                      Cons

                      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

                      Is there an ‘active job seeker’ icon for recruiters on LinkedIn the way there is an ‘actively recruiting’ icon for job seekers?

                      Senior Resource Manager

                      Last Thursday and Friday I interviewed with 2 hiring managers for 2 different companies. Both of them said they’d like me to progress to the next interview and the recruiter would reach out. One company said they wanted a offer out this month so it would be a quick process. I sent thank you emails and references. I haven’t heard from either recruiter. I had the recruiter screening and hiring manager interview just days apart, I thought I’d hear back by now. Thoughts?!
