Pros

Overall, there's a lot of great people who work there. The product works and the NPS score is very good. The company has happy hours about 1x a month and free snacks (the usual "start-up perks" that keep twenty-somethings entertained).

Cons

While transparency is touted as a value, there's a definite limit on what you can say, especially if you're female. The CEO & some members of management prefer sycophants to engaged team members who are willing to challenge the status quo. The CEO is also highly involved in every department's operations, which is understandable given his role as founder. However, the company is getting too big to operate in this manner and this behavior only reinforces the idea that sycophants succeed. At the end of the day, what the CEO wants, he gets.

What this CEO genuinely wants is for every employee to have a deeply positive experience at ArchiveSocial, and regardless of the reasons, it’s clear that we didn’t get there with you. We’ll learn from it and I hope that this leads you to finding a place where you can thrive. ArchiveSocial would not exist and be where it is today without employees constantly challenging the status quo, so please don’t be discouraged. And +1 on the “lot of great people” comment.

Pros

Great people, great culture, and a growing company! The managers really prioritize your growth and your success. I love working at ArchiveSocial.

Cons

There are not many cons at ArchiveSocial. The only con would be that I wish we could work in person

Pros

- Lot's of opportunity to grow - Open communication - Leadership is willing to listen, it can sometimes take a few conversations but once you start talking they want your feedback - Growing and scaling company, exciting time to be part of it and see everything grow - Willing to take chances on employees even if their background may not be a perfect fit - Starting to scale the company and the positions we have more (VP level roles, more sales management roles) --> makes the company feel like we're more out of the start up phase, feels more structured

Cons

- Pay is a bit lower than industry standard, I think that with where we're at as a company - Not as many company events because of covid - "Remote friendly" applies to everyone through the end of the year, but after that the options aren't as flexible for all employees --> This should be reconsidered to keep good employees in the company and happy with their work/environment. If people are successful remote and have proven themselves, they should have the choice to do what they want no matter what positions they're in
