I have been working at Typeform full-time (More than a year)
Pros
Barception is good and that’s probably it sorry
Cons
Leadership has no clue what it is doing and is completely disconnected from its struggling and unqualified staff.
The office is falling apart and needs a complete refit
Most senior or experienced staff have left or been fired in poorly managed/non-transparent culls.
Pay isn’t great and those who have any experience are taken advantage of while everyone else thinks they are experienced and enjoys the lunches, coffee and front row seats to leadership chaos
No one to learn from
Yes I am leaving
Advice to Management
Get the co founders out the building - they are clueless. Get a decent CEO who is experienced, doesn’t talk for the sake of hearing his own nonsense and can relate to the staff. Best piece of advice may simply be to cut your losses

Focus, and trust more you individual contributors rather than your middle managers.

I have been working at Typeform full-time
Pros
Lot's of freedom, great culture and awesome people working there
Cons
Strategy has been a little all over the place. Currently getting better though with a new vision and mission.

I have been working at Typeform full-time (Less than a year)
Pros
How many companies have values that are more than just some words on a website? I have no idea, but what I do know is that at Typeform people really help and care for each other.
How many companies advertise flexible working hours and then you get frowned upon for taking a longer lunch break or working 3 days in a row from home? At Typeform trust is everything. I've never felt as free to make my own schedule before.
How many companies encourage feedback? At Typeform I learned how to give feedback so that it's useful for the person who received it, without hurting their feelings.
These are only 3 things that make Typeform the best place I've ever worked till now.
Cons
I can't think of anything right now. The organization is growing fast, so keeping all the good stuff in place might become a challenge.

I have been working at Typeform full-time (More than a year)
Pros
Work - Life balance. So difficult to find a company that really cares for its employees and gives so much flexibility. As long as work gets done, you are free to work from wherever.
Cons
Startup issues, sometimes lack of focus, but this is being solved in many ways and the entrepreneurial spirit of many employees makes of this a great opportunity to grow within the company.

I have been working at Typeform full-time (More than a year)
Pros
After 2 years I'm still learning and finding enough challenges to keep me motivated, in fact, my job evolved twice in two years.
Nice people to collaborate with. Awesome perks and offices.
Cons
Fast-paced work that includes changes and new proposals very often. If you enjoy learning, facing new challenges and also have the curiosity to improve things it's your place. If you prefer more established and standard work environment it might be less enjoyable.

I worked at Typeform full-time (More than a year)
Pros
Great place to work with awesome office and perks.
Friendly environment, very open with a lot of freedom to try and learn.
The culture is people oriented and quite agile.
You have a lot of autonomy.
Very successful and interesting product.
New and trendy methodologies.
If you love the company and don't find issues everything is great.
Cons
Company growing very very fast, learning how to keep their culture.
Not everybody aligned with the company culture.
Some kind of cool, hipster, trend environment, few pragmatism.
No clear decision making process and responsibility from teams/people.
Paternalism, protecting the people more screaming and giving them what they want although goes against teams or other people.
People oriented culture but a lot of times acting against this principle.
If you disagree or see things to change is difficult to find supports and sometimes also your age going to be left alone.
No clear career path, sometimes impossible to change role or move to an other team
Advice to Management
Please align the management, not everybody is aligned with the company culture.
Start taking actions against not acceptable behaviors like set before personal needs against team or company needs.
Don't throw the problems to the people, some time management has to align people and act instead of avoid problems and hide it.
Start thinking and understanding the company issues, not everything what is happening is not for personal situations, there are also part of company issues affecting people decisions.

I have been working at Typeform full-time (More than a year)
Pros
Amazing familial culture with a completely unique trust in the employees. When challenges arise as the company scales Typeform takes a proactive approach to tackling these problems head on.
Cons
Relatively 'green' group of employees. They put a lot of confidence in people growing into roles which is empowering but sometimes they could benefit from more experienced professionals helping to guide the company's growth.

Hi,
It may not seem like it from your end, but I really appreciate your feedback. It is obvious that Typeform is going through a transition right now (pretty typical at some point for fast-growing startups), and what we need, more than ever, is feedback (like yours) to allow us to improve.
Big sweeping change isn’t easy, but I firmly believe that Typeform will be better than ever after all is said and done. Again, If you have more to say (please, don't hold back) I encourage you to contact me or anyone else in the People Operations team.
Thanks,
Albert Alabau
