Ventajas
Been with Rippling for close to 6 years and there were several versions of the company where each year felt like learning something new, with unique set of challenges in pushing company to 2.5X every 10 months over the course of this time. - Started as an IC in Rippling by prototyping product ideas and figuring out product market fit and company quickly outgrew that phase to winning medium sized business who were hungry for power user level features - Last few months working on shipping products globally, across different countries and challenges around each geography -- which is unique and provides immense opportunities and learning to solve complex problems at scale. - Company has evolved a lot on interview standards -- from solving leetcode hard problems in 45 minutes to giving opportunities for super smart engineers & entrepreneurs to prove their true potential - Expectation from teams across geography has also changed by hiring more local leads / managers and subject matter experts. - Already happy to see 5 Product Managers locally to reduce intense product discussion happening late night ISTs, thanks to top level management for investing heavily on the local hiring and looking forward for more local leaders.
Desventajas
With fast pace, sometimes the deadlines are promised already to customer with several unknowns in place. Aligning the expectations across different stakeholders and negotiating the deadline could be done better with company maturing at entirely different scale now
