Pros

Fun young startup culture 100% remote Quarterly offsites in fun places Good benefits

Cons

The product has almost no functionality and scalability - far behind any competition. They rely fully on their partners (who are also competitors) to stay afloat, and their partners are slowly realizing this. While some of the banks Kard works with are big names, their reach is extremely small. Kard relies 100% on their partners to bring in reach. The sales team struggles to bring on enterprise brands, which is the only way this company will survive. Churn rate is probably 75%-90% Be wary in the interviews, they tell you they work with XYZ, but chances are they actually don't and/or they aren't customer anymore

Pros

Overall, I can tell that everyone one the team really cares, works hard, and is incredibly smart. The work-life balance is some of the best I have ever had, and the compensation is more than competitive. I really enjoy the remote structure we have, and the offsites have been a blast. The last thing I will say is that there is a ton of transparency throughout the org, which can be very rare at start-ups and I have really appreciated that.

Cons

The remote structure took some adjusting to, but I have really settled into that, and the offsites help make up for in-person time.

Employees either stay a long time or are laid off after a short period of time.
