Pros

Savvy is solving a real and valuable problem for financial advisors who want to go independent. The product/market fit feels strong, and there is a clear sense that the company is gaining traction. The engineering culture is great, with thoughtful design, high standards, and a focus on doing things the right way. The people are smart, collaborative, and genuinely care about their work. The in-office culture is one of the best parts of the company, there is real camaraderie, and everyone eats lunch together every day we are in. It feels close-knit and energized.

Cons

The company is still figuring out its structure, especially around product leadership. All PMs report to the CTO, which can make priorities feel more execution-focused than strategic. Ritik, the CEO, is very growth driven, which is great for the company’s trajectory, but at times it can feel a bit transactional or demotivating when that focus overshadows individual recognition. Benefits are also on the weaker side compared to other startups, especially healthcare (I’m spending $$$$)

Pros

- Free lunch every day, plus dinner if you're still around past 8pm. - Wednesdays are WFH with no meetings, which is great for focus. - Lots of room to be proactive and work on what actually speaks to you. - The people are genuinely friendly.

Cons

- Less structure than a bigger company, so if you need process, you'll often have to define it yourself. - The usual startup uncertainty comes with the territory.

Pros

Genuinely one of the better places I've worked when it comes to ownership. The role comes with real scope — you're trusted to make decisions and run with them rather than waiting for permission at every step, which makes the work feel like it actually matters. The people are a big part of it too: smart, capable colleagues who know their domains and are easy to collaborate with. And there's a real sense that we're building something, not just maintaining the status quo. The mission is clear and the work ladders up to it, which keeps the day-to-day meaningful even when it's busy.

Cons

It's still early-stage, and it feels like it. Processes are a work in progress, and you'll regularly hit gaps where the "right way" to do something just doesn't exist yet — you end up defining it as you go. That's energizing if you like building from scratch, but it can be a source of friction if you're expecting things to already be buttoned up. Some growing pains are inevitable at this stage, but a bit more structure would smooth out the rough edges.
