Pluspunten
The CTO is a pretty reasonable guy, probably not a bad place to work if you're on the tech side ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Minpunten
The first day you get hired as a sales rep at WayUp, that's one day closer you are to being out of a job. WayUp has fired and turned over soooo many sales leaders, individual contributors, and account managers that it's almost inconceivable. Go check out Linkedin and search for former WayUp employees; You'll be aghast at the almost infinite number of people who've left. However, if you spent a day working here, you wouldn't be. Thinking you'll be making steady commission to offset the puny base salary that you're too embarrassed to tell your family? Sorry, ain't happening. This product is just a nice to have- A hiring platform that caters to the worst tendencies and stereotypes of millennials (Look at my Instagram feed! Check out my Spotify playlist! I’m such a creative and unique human! Hire me!). HR buyers see little value in this hippie dippy ‘holistic' view of candidates, so sales are few and far between. No one makes any money as a sales person here. Don't let them try and tell you otherwise. _________________________________________________________________________________ I encourage anyone who's considering working at WayUp to do just two simple things: 1) Look at all the various team pictures you can find on the web. Glassdoor, Linkedin, WayUp's company page, etc. Go watch the employer branding video (to the dreadfully on the nose, 'Life in the Fast Lane'). Now, try and see if you can find more than 10 consistent faces b/t them. Spoiler alert, you can't. There is a constant revolving turnstile of talent at WayUp, with most employees quitting or getting fired within the first six months. Sales people, however, tend to turn over in around three months... 2) Look at the reviews here on Glassdoor. You'll find the typical HR propaganda ("Great place to work if you love a challenge! Start up culture moves fast and isn't for everyone!") that has, like, two 'likes'. Why two likes? Because it's completely fabricated trite. Now, take a look at the numerous negative reviews ("Walked out After Three Months", "Employees are Extremely Undervalued", "Wolf in Sheep's Clothing"). These reviews have 'likes' in the double digits (the Wolf in Sheep's Clothing is the most accurate depiction of life at WayUp, and has close to 30 'likes'). One person ("A Year Later") even claims to have PTSD from working at WayUp! Wow.... I mean, Yikes. People do not like working at WayUp. This is not my subjective opinion. This is a fact, and all you have to do is a little homework to prove it.
