Well-paying remote work but poor leadership dynamics - Anonymous employee Transcend (CA) Employee Review

-Excellent pay + benefits -Inspiring C-Suite -Cool product and mission

-Startup pains -No dependent FSA

Transcend is solving a real problem that is both a business (compliance) problem and a human (privacy) problem. The people here are really committed to solving the problem in the way that is best for the end-user. This means they tend to be ahead of the law, giving them a competitive edge over companies that are only focused on compliance. Also, just as importantly, the people who work at Transcend are intelligent and humble. I have never liked my co-workers so much as working at Transcend.

It is still a fairly early stage start-up. This means that there is a fair amount of risk (will the stock options actually be worth anything?) and can be stressful at times.
