Pros

You’ll meet some cool people doing good work. Unfortunately, those people aren’t on the leadership team and are likely on their way out. The original founders and the impact they left behind is inspiring.

Cons

- Leadership is not trustworthy and does not have the employees best interests in mind. - Culture of micromanagement and butts-in-seats - If you disagree with any of the CEOs ideas, expect to have a target on your back - The company is convinced it’s normal to lose 33% of your workforce within a 4 month period - Pay is subpar and morals seem to be missing at the top of the ladder

Pros

The people are great to work with. Colleagues are collaborative, supportive, and genuinely enjoyable to work with day-to-day. The company is financially stable and has a strong market presence. Work-life balance is also realistic and respected.

Cons

Specific to the product manager function, it operates more like product ownership or project management role, with a heavy focus on backlog management and ticket writing rather than strategic work like discovery and vision setting. Leadership tends toward micromanagement, which limits autonomy and decision-making at the team level. There's also a feature factory mentality where shipping output is prioritized over delivering meaningful customer outcomes. Short-term thinking is prevalent, taking away from long-term strategy opportunities. The roadmap is more of an executive team driven approach rather than a hybrid/collaborative approach.
