Pros

When you hear about a culture that's transparent, autonomous, passionate -- or any other cliche startup adjective -- you tend to roll your eyes. But at MuleSoft it's all true. At the individual level, there's so much opportunity to grow and make a difference, no matter what title you hold. It's possible to grow your career if you own it (I've been promoted twice). No jerks and no BS; only good humans who share the same lust for building an incredibly great company. The opportunity is immense -- like nothing else you'll see out there today. We're not solving small problems here, we are changing the way the world operates on an order of magnitude. And that's worth getting up for each and every morning.

Cons

As with any fast growing company, there are growing pains and hiccups along the way. Processes constantly need to be re-evaluated and improved. There's an incessant feeling of impatience and strive for excellence, which can be exhausting. If you're looking for consistency and predictability, this isn't the place for you.

Great company with a lot of potential

Pros

Incredibly talented, hard working teammates. Unlimited (though reasonable) vacation makes it much easier to take days to visit family, work from home, etc. An incredible market opportunity within which we've experienced a phenomenal growth rate. Lots of potential here with the right people to take it.

Cons

High workload leaves many burnt out. Company culture demands self-starters who don't need much direction or hand-holding; this leaves some feeling unsupported. Startup "fun" feel has slowly disappeared into a more traditional enterprise work environment. Some micromanagement from the E-Staff.

Thanks for taking the time to post a review, and totally agree with you on working with an incredible team here! Regarding your concerns about e-staff, happy to discuss this further in person. We are a pretty hands-on, roll-up-your-sleeves group that you don't see very often in companies growing like ours, and sometimes we get a little too excited about the great work our teams are doing. But the last thing we want to do is get in the way. We're here to support you and remove obstacles so you can do your best work. Seriously, reach out, would love to discuss!

Pros

For starters, the people. For me, this is critical to being happy. Good humans, it's not just on our career page, it's the truth. Humble, ethical and helpful, some words I'd use to describe muleys. I've learned from many of them, incredibly smart people have surrounded me and that has helped me be better at what I do. There are always bad apples, don't get me wrong, nothing is perfect, I don’t think there is a perfect company, it's really about what values are the most important to you. And for me, people is in my top three. Second, career opportunities. I've been exposed to so many different areas of the company, and have had the green light to "mutate" my roles so I can work on projects that I want. I've had the opportunity to take my career where I wanted, which is completely different to where I started. I made that possible yes, but the management, my peers and the culture of the company supported it. Last, what we are solving. So much is going on in tech today, but not many focus on solving a problem that impacts a business— and everyday life, as much as integration and connectivity. It's hard, it's challenging, but it's fun...and after four years, I’m still enjoying the ride.

Cons

Always ON.There’s always a lot to do, sometimes (most times) you end up taking work home, because if you don’t, you’ll never get things completely done. So, if you’re all about shutting off at 6, here it will be hard. No WFH. Personally, it’s not a very negative for me, because I do have the flexibility I need, but I know it’s something most companies in the industry offer their employees. Don’t do many fun group/family activities. Besides meetup and holiday parties, we don’t get many offsites, team building activities organized by the company. Some teams do their own thing, but it depends more on your manager. Promotions are not quick like other companies you might be used to. Although you do have the opportunities to experiment and own, getting promoted can take very long.

Thanks for the review and I'm happy to hear about your experience. Hiring the best talent and challenging and developing them is very important to us. Sometimes that means we are working longer hours than our industry peers, and driving the business harder than is expected - but we love it nonetheless because of who we do it with. I would love to chat with you in person about how we can make the experience even better, together. Thanks again.
