Pros

Amazing individual contributors who are supportive and collaborative. Great lunch options and amazing view. Engineering team is awesome and has clearly built a valuable product.

Cons

The leadership team heavily micromanages employees. They keep track of how many breaks you take and believe that the time spent at your desk is in direct correlation to the level of effort you are putting forth. They hold different standards based solely on a system of favorites and will turn a blind eye to individuals that use their sexuality to get ahead, while chastising others for minor transgressions. Do not attempt to challenge the process or provide a unique point of view at GetFeedback as it will be damaging to their ego and seen as insubordination. It is best to keep your head down from 9-5, not leave your seat and never speak up. With relation to the hiring process, it is often influenced by who the hiring manager sees themself getting a drink with after work, as opposed to directly reflecting a candidate’s skill set and aptitude for the job. The HR manager/leadership team has minimal knowledge in dealing with disabilities and there is no formal process for empowering employees instead of putting them down. They may say that they offer flexible working schedules and work from home policies but it’s important to note this only applies to the selected “favorites”. If you’re looking to be involved in an amazing startup that will foster individual growth and listen to your ideas, I’d suggest looking elsewhere.

Pros

I've worked for 5 startups and I'd follow this team into a fire! Best product/market fit I've seen. 90% inbound leads, the marketing team kills it! The commission structure is fair and the close rate is solid. Work-life balance is great, they are flexible for commuting and allow 1 work from home day a week. Craig is a remarkably approachable CEO and is hilarious to work with. With the acquisition, it still has a small team/startup feel but with the funding of a public company.

Cons

It's actually hard to think of something but we are currently in a transitional period after the acquisition so a few of the expected growing pains.

Pros

GetFeedback truly cares about their employees. I have seen many people start in Junior roles and continue to grow their career with GetFeedback into more challenging higher paying positions. We have many of the perks that most companies in this space do: Catered lunches, lots of happy hours and appreciation events, unlimited PTO… We have had some hiccups with a few hires in management that just weren’t the right fit, the great thing about GetFeedback is that they listen and they fix the problems. Rarely have I been at an organisation that is this proactive at removing a “bad seed” from that team. It is very reassuring to know that your employer has your back and really wants everyone to succeed and work in harmony with each other. The Director of HR here at GetFeedback has done an awesome job of making sure this is a comfortable and productive environment for the entire team. While working in the sales team requires a great deal of work and challenging quotas, our Director of Sales is extremely supportive of the whole team empowering us with the tools and assistance we need to hit our goals. The payoff is well worth the time and effort! When you are working with this cool a product, with such a great reputation in the industry it is a fairly easy sell.

Cons

Can't think of anything that I am unhappy about.
