Ventajas

Most folks are friendly and there are interesting technical challenges. Space to learn and grow.

Desventajas

Executive leadership is disorganized and refuses to listen to folks with ideas on how to improve. Priorities are not clear and can change at the whim of an exec who wants their work done first. Multiple projects in flight with not enough people to work on them, and no desire to prioritize these projects in a sustainable and realistic way. Some product staff suffer from cognitive dissonance mostly because they have been force into that situation an example is the lack of understanding that asking a dev to "look" at something is essentially making that thing a priority over everything else. Some execs do not embody company "values" and there is no one to hold them accountable. Benefits are basic. Heroism is rewarded.

Ventajas

Remote work, decent benefits for some things. If you thrive in high stress/high pressure situations, with constant change & pivoting priorities, this place is for you.

Desventajas

Kin having the value “Operate lean; deliver more” should tell you pretty much everything you need to know about working at this company. There is little to no training yet the expectations to produce & perform are very high. Flexible/unlimited PTO is part of the benefits but if you feel like you can’t ever take time off because you’re so busy with work/deadlines, it’s not really a benefit. Not to mention, the time leading up to taking more than a few days off is SO stressful trying to get everything done or ready to be handed off that you question if it’s even worth it. Burnout is a very real thing at this company. They terminate people quite frequently here so you are often in fear of losing your job which adds another level of stress on top of everything else. While they are flexible, the work/life balance is poor. Working evenings & weekends is frequently necessary to meet deadlines.
