Pros

Unique T&E offering. Free lunch

Cons

Surprising number of employees working in fear. Employee turnover is crazy high (with 2 week notice built into contracts). The most buggy/unreliable product I have ever known about in my entire career in tech. If you made as far as reviewing Navan on Glassdoor, you're lucky - compare Navan to literally any other tech company and read the reviews. It paints a very clear picture.

Pros

Fast paced, plenty of room and opportunity to grow. Very good starting pay and ability to earn bonuses. Many remote work options. Strong culture and supportive leadership, with fun company events (like the Christmas party) that help people feel connected, even for the many remote employees.

Cons

The pre‑hire assessment is very strict and pass/fail. I’ve referred strong, experienced candidates who I know are good workers, but they did not pass the test and were not given the opportunity to move forward. It feels like the process may screen out some high‑potential talent who could otherwise thrive here.
