      Business outlook

      Pros

      - Founders have a clear long-term vision that is exciting - Many clever co-workers and no "lame ducks" (everybody pulls their weight) - Very good compensation and benefits - Everybody generally tries to help each-other - Incredible transparency with the team (All Hands etc)

      Cons

      - A lot of micro-management / sign-offs in every department leading to slow progress and frustration when one could have done the job oneself - Politics have started as company grows. Former flat hierarchy is under threat and employees are less empowered than they used to be - High workload and resource shortage which can affect process and product quality (particularly during peak season)

      Pros

      Product is cool, location in SF is cool, other teams are cool...

      Cons

      FACT: Over the past 2 years they've lost over 12+ people in the Finance department FACT: There is zero work/life balance (they will call you at night, on weekends, on vacations...) FACT: They don't pay competitively FACT: Management doesn't back or develop their direct reports FACT: They manage your exit and basically write what you tell your coworkers on why you left FACT: Management talks poorly about their team (yes their own team!?) to anyone that will listen FACT: All this has been under the same Finance leadership team....

      Sorry to hear about your experience but really appreciate you sharing. As shared previously in response to a similar review related to the finance department we are committed to making changes to make finance a key strength of Anki and to create an amazing work environment for all teams and departments at Anki.

      Avoid the Finance Department

      Pros

      Technology is interesting and that is all.

      Cons

      No opportunity for growth. Unsupportive management that isn't checked and trickles all the way down from executive level to entry level management. Do not expect development or recognition of hard work (via title or pay). What you should expect is empty promises, which will not come to fruition.

      Thanks so much for the feedback. We are very sorry that you didn’t have a good experience at Anki. We are aware this is a challenge we are going thru a strong rebuild of finance and we are committed to it being culturally and functionally a deep strength going forward.
