Pros

- Great people at the crafter level: smart, competent, kind - Remote work is always a bonus - Fun Summit events - Good pay, solid benefits

Cons

- Leadership is lost. C-suite is clueless as to what they're doing and it results in a workforce that has no direction. - Middle management spans the spectrum from "the C-suite is infallible and we must obey them at all costs" to "well, that's just what we have to do." None of them stand up to senior leadership. - The culture has deteriorated severely. What used to be a fun place to work with great people has become a never-ending source of stress. - Layoffs are frequent. My role was eliminated because of one, and it feels like they're just kind of ongoing. It never feels safe.

Pros

Remote first culture. If you want freedom of location and a company to truly mean and support it - this is the place.

Cons

Constant change. Nothing to hold on to in this role, compensation, KPI's, tools all change every quarter.

Pros

High comp and AI forward. One of the few remote places left.

Cons

Upper management basically openly disdains the “working class”, and it’s a major jostle among the VP and Director level for currying favor with the CEO. The investment in AI tooling is smart but also the C suite majorly suffers from AI psychosis, it’s embarrassing, actually.
