Ventajas
Rippling is growing fast, and being a multi-product startup, there's always a lot to do. And so it's good there is premium on action. You get what you are sold - you cannot not Run Hard. At the same time, there is opportunity to structure your work so you have time for life beyond work. For eg, it's rare to receive slacks or mails over weekend. And late night calls are a norm at every US based company. The product is not perfect, but changes are quick. Sometimes product tweaks are only a few slack messages away. That's refreshing. Management is young, but good to work with and keen to listen. The place is still quite small, and senior mgmt is quite accessible.
Desventajas
The current economic situation is creating uncertainty, and when combined with the pace of this company, the pace at which things change can be disconcerting for some. There is a culture of high accountability, and so it's important to always remain on top of one's game. This place is not for anybody looking for stability or perfect processes that one is merely implementing. This place is for people who want to roll up their sleeves and build the process.
