Great learning environment where high performance is expected - Director Postscript Employee Review

Amazing colleagues. Lots of smart team members willing to come together to find a solution or offer recommendations to be customer first.

- LOTS of layoffs. Bound to happen in tech, but in less than two years there were multiple rounds of layoffs, including a larger RIF - Like other reviews mention, lots of emphasis and power given to senior leadership with shady/limited comms shared to the rest of the team. They claim there are cutbacks (above mentioned layoffs), yet senior leaders are on offsites a few times a month. - Pay is not on par with industry standards and hard to get meaningful promotions based on the corporate competencies structure they expect you to follow. Yet, many roles have blurred lines and responsibilities that don’t fall in line with their competency structure. - If you are not buddy buddy with senior leader and/or in a role that draws a lot of company attention or impact, good luck trying to advance or be given new opportunities you express interest in. - As other reviews mention, they do not operate as a mature startup and still seem to fly by the seat of their pants

I’ve really enjoyed my time at Postscript. I worked adjacent to my manager at a previous company, so I already knew she was someone who communicates well, trusts her team, and gives people room to do great work. That made joining an easy decision. The biggest difference for me compared to past roles has been the level of trust and flexibility. I have more ownership here and somehow way less stress at the same time. People are treated like adults. You’re expected to solve problems, speak up, and contribute outside your job description if you want to. That startup energy is hard to fake. The culture also feels genuine. Smart people, low egos, and very little corporate theater. Teams collaborate well and people actually want to help each other succeed. It’s fast-paced, but in a motivating way instead of a burnout way.

Like any growing startup, priorities can shift quickly and processes are still evolving in some areas. If you prefer a very structured environment with everything mapped out months in advance, it might be an adjustment.
