Pros

The company attracts top talent, compensates fairly and has awesome growth opportunities ahead of it. The work is also meaningful. Addepar is one of the few companies that can draw a line from the intersection of tech and finance to very meaningful impact.

Cons

Self-management and the ability to deal with hard tradeoffs is a constant requirement at the time of writing. This makes both growing when you have less experience and focusing at any level difficult. And it brings a certain amount of stress to the job. Given the growth pace, there's a fairly hard road ahead and that means it isn't a place for everyone. It can be exhausting.

Pros

Unlimited PTO that they encourage you to use

Cons

Vey cliquey and laden with politics. Lot of the promotions didn't make any sense and just seemed to be based on the VP's mood on any given day. Favoritism galore and to top it off.... the clients are so difficult to deal with. Unrealistic expectations and no support from management when they are out of line. You will be demonized if you call it out.
