Pros

Blockthrough has been one of the best places I've worked in my career in terms of the quality of the leadership (both professional and personal) and the level of autonomy and trust I've had to forge my ow path. Blockthrough has a really strong people-first ethos, while at the same time being super driven to achieve success - a key reason why we were acquired by Eyeo gmbh. Being in publisher development, it's been a pleasure to take a product to market that truly brings incremental value to our customers and is basically a no brainer to work with!

Cons

Being a remote first company, it can get a bit lonely if you're used to working in an office environment, and you have to be very self motivated. I think it's still to be seen how acquisition by Eyeo will affect us, but I think all employees at Blockthrough have faith in our leadership to keep driving us forward and ensuring that we succeed in the new company.

Pros

- Competitive salary (depending where you live)

Cons

- Toxic culture where people enjoy openly talking behind people’s backs. Petulant behavior is common and those around you are waiting for you to make a mistake or say the wrong thing so they can tell your manager about it. This childlike behavior is not only enabled by senior leadership, but rewarded by them, as well - They spend more time bad mouthing competitors than improving their solutions - A couple execs have clearly risen to roles higher than they’re capable of, resulting in a company that feels amateur. They also have no business in people management, unable to properly handle issues

Pros

- opportunity to make a difference and grow

Cons

- barriers to entry seem pretty easy for a competitor to jump in and take marketshare - CEO is very much "what have you done for me lately" and would fire his mother if he had to - Shares were a great perk for new employees, until they were diluted to nothing
