Guru Technologies reviews about "match"

I have been at Guru for over a year and the honeymoon phase continues. In fact, it keeps getting better and better! The leadership team lives our core values everyday and their positive and respectful energy flows down through the rest of the team. My colleagues are smart and fun, people that I want to hang out with after work. Even my prospects have mentioned how incredible the whole Guru team is to work with. Our product continues to stand out and disrupt the market. We continue to land exciting logos. Being in sales, it keeps me motivated that Guru is solving a critical knowledge problem for customers and they rave about how much they love us. It is also nice that the sales leadership team has continued to invest in ongoing training and making sure the whole sales org is on the same page. Additionally, I have seen the leadership team take feedback from employees to make Guru an even better place to work, ie: adding a 401k, updating the health plans, and improving the maternity leave policies. The leaders really care about the team! I also feel very well supported by our engineering team. They take prospect / customer feedback and move quickly to enhance product features. I'm also excited that we are moving into a bigger and brighter office space in San Francisco very soon. Our little satellite office is growing up!

The culture is great. Employees have a lot of flexibility and the company treats us well. The Guru product is strong.

Everyone is SO welcoming and supportive! I've never worked in a more team-supportive environment, across pods! Employees band together to support one another on projects, events, and other initiatives. Guru has an open floor office space that allows for easy access to leadership. Everyone - across all levels - is transparent in what expectations are, and for giving feedback. Additionally, Guru offers a chill, dog-friendly office; tons of diversity and opportunities to give back to the community; cold brew coffee on tap + snacks; flexible hours and working options; and lots of fun employee events such as live music in-house, bowling, and trivia.

Culture is a high priority at Guru. Onboarding was seamless. Great leadership - listens to feedback.

Simply put—growing a company at this rate and size is never easy, but Guru manages to make it feel elegant. Leadership is consistently transparent about where we shine, where we have polishing to do, and our opportunities for the future. There are many opportunities to step up and lead new initiatives, explore new areas of the business, and embrace personal career growth.

There are two major pros when working at Guru (at least for me). First is the company culture. A lot of effort goes into keeping the company connected and motivated across two coasts. Guru encourages a healthy and fun culture from a variety of angles. Everything from office happy hours, to live music events, to 1:1's with the founders and leadership. They hire for culture, and that makes a huge difference when you're seeing your coworkers every day. Second is their dedication to professional growth. Guru encourages hiring within and allowing employees to explore areas of interest. As long as you've got grit and show your dedication to your work, there are no guardrails set up to keep you in a specific role. Beyond these two, there are so many more benefits. If you're interested in working with talented, fun and kind people at a high growth company, I don't think it gets much better than Guru.

Guru has grown immensely over the three years I've been here, but the one thing that has stayed constant is people caring for each other and the common goal. It's easy to think knowledge management isn't the sexiest tech field, but with a team as committed, driven, and thoughtful as Guru it really feels like the most exciting work out there. The company is also invested in growing the diversity long before getting too big to fix it and ensuring their employees have lives - a major plus in comparison to most startups.

Transparency from senior management is great, everyone is friendly and welcoming, very laid back office environment. Great location in Philly.

- There is a strong foundation of trust between management and individual contributors. Employees are trusted to get their work done and empowered with the tools and guidance they need to do it. - Leadership is transparent about company priorities and challenges. - Every department is focused on how we can continuously improve. - Formal performance reviews twice a year with opportunities for compensation increases - Year-long leadership training offered to every employee - Professional development stipend - Excellent work/life balance, unlimited PTO (and lots of encouragement from leadership to use it)
