Pluspunten
Fun and thorough onboarding experience. Very open and communicative culture with an emphasis on transparency, trust, and inclusion. Awesome product and company vision. A genuinely mission driven company which takes action to meet it ecological responsibilities (working towards a sustainable future is more than just lip service here, it's built into an increasing number of decisions and processes). Opportunities to work directly with decision makers and earn personal recognition from leaders of varying levels. Company frequently updates policies to remain competitive and desirable to employees. i.e. recently got rid of 1yr cliff and annual vesting for RSU's. Now there is no cliff and shares vest quarterly.
Minpunten
Low wage: Even with a strong resume and what felt like an awesome interviewing experience, $27/hr was the best I was able to negotiate for my role as a Sr. Field Specialist. From my research, $27/hr is about 10% less than industry average for similar roles and does not feel commensurate of the duties expected, especially when considering the premium associated with living in the greater Seattle area. Also, 4% match on 401k is less than I have enjoyed at other smaller companies with less funding. Don't have enough info to know if this is a pro or con, but my comp also includes $27,000 worth of RSU's which vest quarterly over 4 years.
