Pros

- Unlimited PTO - 100% Work from home - Annual company meeting is very nice.

Cons

- Met my direct manager 2 times. Once in my interview and once during mass layoffs. - All product knowledge sits with offshore contractors. If you adjust your working hours to have more overlap with the contractors you're still expected to be working well into the night. - Constantly told desired tooling or processes are right around the corner but never 'momnt' never arrives. This makes planning for current issues problematic because you're never sure if you should build bridge solutions or just wait. - Several people were promoted into positions they didn't ask for, didn't want and often without notice. So don't expect someone with a certain job title to have expertise in that position - Many processes are from the 1990's era of development. When modern solutions will solve business problems and there is team buy in, there is still pretty significant resistance to adopting the new practice from SDM/PM's. - There was never a path for upward mobility in the company. When I specifically asked for one, my email and slack message was ignored. - Was told my first week Momnt is a FINtech company, with a strong emphasis on the FIN. - No data is being used to driving decisions. This meant everything was a fire, every time. This also meant nobody had insight into how much money features were projected to cost or what the projected ROI would be. It doesn't matter where you are in your career, if you're in engineering, this likely isn't the best fit for you.

Pros

Exceptionally strong individual contributors across product, engineering, and operations Teams routinely delivered under resourcing, tooling, and strategic constraints The core idea of the company has real merit

Cons

Executive leadership repeatedly communicated confidence about company stability that did not align with subsequent actions. Employees were told layoffs were not expected, only to be laid off shortly thereafter. As a result, trust in leadership messaging eroded quickly. Decision-making lacked transparency and accountability, particularly during periods of uncertainty. Long-tenured employees with deep institutional knowledge were let go with little explanation, while severance offered was minimal and inconsistent with both tenure and industry norms. The most damaging outcome was not the layoffs themselves, but how they were handled. Once leadership credibility is lost, execution slows, morale collapses, and attrition becomes inevitable. Talented teams can survive hard times. They cannot survive leadership they no longer believe.
