Pros
- Most people are great to work with, very open and eager to make awesome things. - Interesting problems to solve, projects are challenging that require you to really understand customers and learn about the accounting world. - You could get to work on problems you feel passionate about. - Teams are always open to try new things. - You get to lead the execution of the designs you work on. - Lots of integration events, a good environment to make friends.
Cons
- COVID was just an excuse for some departments to layoff people who had strong opinions about the product and cared about the customer, which tells a lot about the leadership culture given that they are aggressively hiring three months after the layoffs. - Soo much tech debt that often prevents designers from innovation. - For a Senior-level, you are expected to have an understanding of business to get buy-in from leadership. - It feels like you can only grow by polishing the right people's shoes. - Procurify has been the first (and only) job for many engineers in the team. This often has an impact in terms of work ethics. - The sense of urgency to deliver is not the same for everyone, some people are in the comfort zone. - 1:1s some times are pointless because peer feedback is bad, you find out about how people feel about your work through your manager or a third persona. - Your performance is assessed by the success of your team rather than as an individual. - Only had training on general things leadership wanted me to attend but had 0 training on topics I was interested about (also relating to my position). - The founder is a great guy but always looked so stressed or burned out.
