Pros
Keela attracts and retains some of the most amazing people I have ever had the pleasure of working with. The passion is top-notch, the drive is amazing, and I guarantee you will learn a lot from your peers. Keela is a great learning platform to advance your skills if you want to advance quickly. Your pay won't reflect market value, but it's by no means bad. It's a noble cause. Keela is a B-Corp. They serve nonprofits. You can end your day feeling good about yourself. When Keela is good, it's great. There's room for growth, innovation, and a chance to own your impact. The metrics are good, and there are a lot of things to be excited about all the time.
Cons
If you want to be gaslit into believing you're not good at your job due to incompetent management, then Keela is the place for you. The bulk of these issues stem from the exec level, creating a culture whose pH levels are downright hazardous to other staff. One wrong hire on the Go To Market team caused a mass exodus of talent because of the incredibly toxic culture she created across not just Go To Market but into Product as well. Enjoy working with someone who is completely incompetent, multi-tasks during meetings she's called for you to present at, and then having to do it 10 more times down the line because she's incapable of listening. The CEO is more manipulative than your average CEO: - Creating an environment with no psychological safety to say no - Having the Chief of Staff check up on your Google Calendar to ensure you're not taking too long of a lunch break - Befriending and consistently contacting employee's partners - Sending you "urgent" menial tasks late at night to test your boundaries - Oh, and forcing new/senior employees to write glowing Glassdoor reviews to drown out the more realistic ones...
