Pluspunten
Amazing culture. Fantastic people. Humble founders. BackerKit is an environment where it is accepted - nay, encouraged - to make mistakes, learn from them, and try new things to see if they work better! Almost every single person who works here knows how to check their ego at the door and collaborate to get work done. Great benefits: health, dental, vision, 401k with matching, commuter benefits, snacks, lunches, crowdfunding stipend, learning and development stipend, and profit-sharing. Compensation is not only competitive, but also adjusted based on performance and cost of living. Feedback is kind, frequent, honest, and always with the intention of helping each other work better. #radicalcandor No VC funding means we can expect slow, steady growth and stay a values-driven company.
Minpunten
Because the company is small and pretty tight-knit, I can understand how it might feel groupy at times. However, everyone is very friendly and accepting. Upper management could be better about communicating information to the company at large - however, I think this is a result of BackerKit's slow-and-steady approach to change. Working at such a small company (30-something as of early 2020) means your career advancement opportunities are somewhat limited. However, BackerKit offers the opportunity to build your skills in an awesome environment and to become an expert in the crowdfunding space.
