      Account executive
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Truly agile and collaborative environment Best in Class Product, Support and Leadership Extremely positive work environment Competitor aware and customer obsessed A vital SaaS solution for your customers - not a commodity and easily differentiated Internal support is Grade A

      Cons

      Classic pains of a scaling SaaS company competing against legacy, well known incumbents Slack is difficult to explain - which is challenging but not impossible

      Great Place To Work, Would Recommend To Friends

      Senior frontend engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      1. My coworkers are very supportive 2. So much greenfield in lots of areas of the product 3. A ton of work to be done 4. You work on a product many people love 5. Company benefits are the best I've ever had 6. I've been consistently busy/working hard since I joined 7. Lots of career growth opportunities 8. Lots of grass-roots efforts to improve overall code quality 9. We work hard, and then go home. You can hear crickets (not literally) in our Slack workspace overnight. Work-life balance really exists here.

      Cons

      1. Lots of engineers, not enough product managers or designers to unblock engineering's work so they are sometimes a bottle neck 2. The process of assigning work to engineers is not a well-oiled machine 3. Not a lot of process in general, which leads to inefficiencies

      Word Hard, Play Hard, Go Home

      Recruiter
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Team cares about you as a person and your growth. Huge focus on empathy, making a difference, and work/life balance.

      Cons

      Could have better options for lunch and snacks at the office. More structure and consistency with processes would also be helpful, but this is expected of a growing company.
