Pros

- great benefits - Product works - CEO genuinely cares although I question who he gets his advice from - HR is communicative - Benefits are solid - Genuinely cares about their customers (yes this is rare)

Cons

- Lack of leadership in certain departments - This isn't true of all departments though and some are run really really well. - Hiring too fast - Sales/Sales ops/BI /Product management leadership doesn't exist. No idea how to build quotas, understand metrics- people have left based on this who would have been great to keep at the company. - Company needs experience sales/sales ops leadership and product management to course correct. - Continually talks about product led company but not sure they really get what that means - Layoff process is terrible - while HR communicates well, in general, they are in over their heads on this one. I was not laid off but watched layoffs happen. - Recruiting pulls so much from the same companies which is fine but Privy has taken this too far. Likely due to referral bonus. Ex. one department is all basically from one company.

Pros

Great culture and work life, there is a balance where you work hard and also have time to hang out with coworkers and there are team outings. Everyone at Privy has the same goal in terms of growing the company which is amazing. You also are not micro managed here and are encouraged to work on projects and grow your skills.

Cons

I took a pay cut when starting here, and hope in the future, the compensation will increase. But the other benefits are amazing!

It's a startup so things are always changing you just have to be ready for it, it's not actually a con just startup life
