Pros

After seeing all that I've seen, the many faces, and all the dishonesty, I will have to say none. The coffee just isn't worth it.

Cons

First and foremost: NO JOB SECURITY!!!! Zero growth. Outdated business mold. Shady/phony studies. Dishonest management. Colorful Infographics - seriously No career growth Industry laughing stock Dare me to keep going on.

Pros

What few they had vanished when the company went full remote. There are a handful of kind employees working here, but most of the real talented people have moved on to organizations providing true growth that recognize their employees' efforts.

Cons

If you are considering applying to Fractl, I implore you to read on. As many of the reviews outline here, Fractl offers zero security. Just had a baby? You’re expendable. Just got married and are trying to start a new chapter in your life? You’re expendable. Single father with multiple children to care for? You’re expendable. This company is capsizing, and the administration definitely won’t throw you a life preserver; if anything, they’ll use you to keep their heads above water. They’ll assure you that you’re doing a good job; they’ll smile to your face; then they’ll stab you in the back. Given the Great Resignation occurring now, you would have to be desperate to settle for a gig at Fractl. If you do – it. will. not. last. I’ve never been part of an organization with as much turnover, be it due to mass layoffs when the partners fail to retain a client or to individuals leaving because of shabby treatment. That alone is a colossal red flag. And while you’re wasting your short time here, real opportunities with long-term potential will be passing you by. You owe it to yourself and to your family: Just keep looking. Do not settle for this company. You’ll thank me (and yourself) later.

Pros

Fun workspace, very open and easy to collaborate. SO millennial and trendy- doing things like free yoga, DIY sharpie mugs, a nacho bar, and a state of the art made to order free Starbucks machine. The benefits package is great, lots of flexibility with PTO, work from home options, and very casual laid back atmosphere. TLDR: the best thing is the free snacks,cool group activities, the freedom to wear basically whatever you want and take a work from home day if you need to.

Cons

You will get burnt out, quickly. Because there's no growth path, they don't utilize their employees specific skill sets because they don't value their employees as unique individuals- you're all replaceable and easily dispensable, there's nothing you can do that they can't hire someone else to do and take your spot in 5 seconds (they do this all the time) I was there for 6 months and I watched my department lose 12 people and get 12 more. That's about 1 person fired one person hired every 2 weeks (pay day). I kid you not. I also asked to be more involved, took a lot of initiative and proved myself in a lot of ways to be valuable but was given no opportunity to grow or actually contribute where I offered the most expertise. THERE IS NO TRANSPARENCY FROM HIGHER UPS. 21 of us just got laid off with zero notice, zero indication that we had to worry, zero severance, and zero apologies. Like I said you👏🏼are👏🏼dispensable, and they will treat you like that. JOB SECURITY DOES NOT EXIST HERE.
