Pluspunten

Being remote is the only plus but so is everywhere else these days.

Minpunten

- CEO is condescending. He does not value you or your work. - He gets employees to leave 5 star reviews on here. Look at the current ones, Jan 11th was a good day! Also November too! I guess he didn't think before telling everyone to go and leave reviews on the same day. - The pay is quite low. - The company isn't going anywhere. It's still not profitable and it's been quite a while now. - Long hours without as much as a "Thank you!" - Your "pulse check" survey results aren't real. The company is too small to be completely honest on the survey and the CEO is a bit hot-headed and condescending so I know the others answered falsely worried they would get fired as it is quite easy to see who answered, even though he says it's anonymous.

Response from CEO: - Employees are free and encouraged to write what they want. There is no pressure whatsoever. They write that themselves and I don't know who is who on those reviews. - Unless you have access to our pay, which you don't since no one who did so far left the company, I am not sure how you can say that the pay is low. In fact, we continuously get praised for our packages. - On profitability: this comment reflects a lack of understanding of the startup world. While profitability is important, it is one of many metrics. Most startups are not profitable, which is exactly why they raise VC money. Do you not use Uber because they are not profitable? - I am sorry that you did not appreciate our interactions. I value direct feedback both good and bad, and it is true I will tackle blatant underperformance. Some people appreciate feedback much more when it is positive, but here your overall tone and fact-free attacks point to you holding some grudge, so I am going to assume this might have been the core issue.

Pluspunten

Many opportunities for growth and advancement and consequently the company's leadership is diverse and effective. The compensation is very competitive while also allowing flexible hours to accommodate a healthy work/life balance. Great culture for passionate professionals to be rewarded for original ideas and result delivery. Working remotely at Relay Platform has allowed me to get my work done faster and more effectively and I have not had to sacrifice relationship with my coworkers. The flexible work arrangement has allowed me to accomplish more at work and have more valuable free time.

Minpunten

Company operates remotely (full time work from home) means you don't have daily in person interactions with coworkers, however there are regular company sponsored summits to connect employees in person and also many deliberate connections made regularly via zoom and slack.
