Pros

It’s a good place to work with diverse nationalities.

Cons

No structure, encourages bullying, no worklife balance. Management sets unrealistic expectations and they gossip alot especially the asians. They do not care about the growth of their employees all the care about is getting the work done making employees have anxiety and stress. The work environment is very toxic and encourages people to step on others just for the sake of being recognized or promoted. This place doesn’t support anyone’s mental health.

Toxic Work Environment, Zero company culture

Pros

Smart people around you, people are genuinely there to work hard. Being in a hyper-growth innovative company.

Cons

Terrible Sales Leadership- not only are they the least compelling leaders I’ve ever seen, they gaslight and manipulate employees into believing the toxic work conditions are normal. There is zero space to have a differing opinion than the cis white males in the room, and the company itself gives nothing to employees. No perks, terrible office conditions (Austin is the worst), being tracked by China. Everyone works in silos, collaboration is non-existent. Stay far away from this place.

Pros

+ Catered Lunch + Comprehensive Health Insurance + Flex Claims + Friendly Colleagues

Cons

Compensation here is notably unfair, with new hires often earning more than tenured employees. Despite years with the company, the salaries of tenured staff can remain stagnant from day 1. This leads to significant dissatisfaction among tenured employees who feel their efforts and dedication go unappreciated. The quarterly appraisal is also flawed. Regardless of the effort one puts in, grades may remain consistent (unless you are a managers favorite). At times, it seems that currying favor with managers and networking effectively can lead to better grades. The internal job posting process is equally disheartening. Some individuals get automatically promoted without undergoing the standard interview process. Tenured employees many not even get the chance to progress due to the rigid IJP application criteria. There are cases of abusive manager towards team members and some of this has been reported however no actions has been taken by the company to address this.
