Honestly , for a tech company with a start up mindset I am disappointed with the lack of flexibility. Many other companies offering Remote Summers; Flexi starting and end times; greater remote working etc

Pros

Really great group of people! I've found some great friends and mentors here. The product is super cool and getting innovated upon very fast.

Cons

The strategy changes a lot

Pros

Overall I enjoyed my time at Similarweb - the product really is good and many people past and present would agree. Many of the colleagues I worked with were also enjoyable and I still keep in touch with some after having left. The org has done a good job of trying to provide people with opportunities within the company (career mobility, training opportunities, etc.), particularly given they put a lot of resources in place when they were still small.

Cons

While layoffs are happening throughout tech, I'm not entirely shocked to hear about the ones happening at Similarweb. Many people, past and present, have lost confidence in the CEO. Management has a big focus on data however when they are presented with data or strong arguments that go against their plans, they ignore it and do what they want anyway. For example, there's a strong focus on work/life flexibility in the job market, yet this company increased the # of days required in the office to 4. Like...why? It will only increase turnover and add to employee dissatisfaction. There's a lack of consistency in their processes and they tend to make big decisions without doing their due diligence first. They spent however many millions of dollars opening up a new building/campus and everyone was asking...why? All that money wasted when it could have been thrown into the business in another way. I wouldn't discourage anyone from working here because there are a lot of perks, you just need to know what you're getting into first and if you're okay with what they offer, great, but there are several frustrations within this company that haven't changed, particularly because of leadership.

Pros

-Competitive OTE -Middle managers mostly were promoted from within and have their teams best interests at heart -Sociable and kind colleagues -Work life balance

Cons

Where do I begin... -Majority of the US base has very minimal confidence in C-Level executives (cannot emphasize this enough) -Bureaucratic decisions where leadership and Product teams make decisions about the product with very minimal regard for what customer facing employees relay -Product is slow to make effective changes -Sheer disconnect from Israel to the US teams (more so than just time zone differences: work culture in the US/Europe, Diversity and Inclusion, etc.) especially from the CEO and CPO -Management has threatened employees with rationale that is illegal in the US -Oftentimes its the "Chosen Few" who go up for and get promotion while management is not shy of dangling a 'promotion carrot' on other members -Certain teams/orgs are set up for better success than others simply based on the industry they are in, though targets are the same across the board -Management seems to shoot in the dark with how to structure Enterprise vs. Strategic accounts, who works on what, how the 'pods' get paid, etc. They seem to try something new without an actual understanding of what the outcome might be nor how employees think it would pan out. -Israeli leadership has minimal understanding of Diversity & Inclusion practices and does not promote from top down; it always had to come from the bottom up and seemed to always have been met with resistance -Product pricing is never flushed out before they make yet another change to the product, resulting in poor training of salespeople -Heavy reliance on Account Management to be the backbone of revenue generation while Sales team struggles and often sells bad deals for Account Management to salvage -High turnover rate (slew of reasons here)

Pros

Great coworkers at the job

Cons

Upward mobility might be an issue due to the economy

Pros

love the product and consulting aspect of the role

Cons

hmmm there are some cons for sure but it is better than other environments I've worked in in tech
