What to watch for

“weak onboarding”
“weak onboarding, unclear expectations”
“communication gaps across teams, RTO creep”

No real complaints

Overall, Honestly the most supportive team I've been on people jump in to help without you even asking. Leadership says one thing in the all-hands and does the opposite.

Pros

fully remote, no RTO games

Cons

weak onboarding

Mixed bag

Pay is market, nothing to write home about. Decent spot to park for a couple years and level up. Pay sat below market and they wouldn't budge at review time.

Pros

stock that's actually worth something, fast decisions

Cons

weak onboarding, unclear expectations
