Pros

Great upside. You get to try new things, and are rewarded for experimentation. The CEO successfully began another tech company that revolutionized another industry, and has the same plans to do so in the career/job search space. Growing fast, lots of excitement.

Cons

Still a young company so there are changes at times, but in a good way!

Pros

Not a lot of oversight or management. Freedom to experiment. Offered a 401k (but no insurance).

Cons

After a year of great work (when I was expecting a raise) and working 45 hours (expected/encouraged), the CEO decided the OT cost too much and said he was lowering my pay rate — and then asked me to work 50 hours to equal my original salary. Yes, more work and less pay. I said this didn't seem right, he said "startups usually demand extra work and it's 'the culture,' and if I didn't like it maybe it wasn't a good fit." So I quit and got a job making almost twice as much with benefits and real structure. Since I left, the co-founder has changed my name on multiple high-performing bylines to his own name — I'm still cited on the sites that quote/link to them. As for the rest of the content, it's almost all BS stuff that's churned out as clickbait. No effort at real accuracy, just content farming to try to drum up backlinks. The product itself is garbage, just scrapes job listings from other sites with little to no accuracy as far as the "AI-based" career matching... I was matched with 53 truck driving jobs and two writing internships. Arbitrarily let go three employees while I was there... kept interns on hand for extended periods of time with no actual learning, just worked them hard and paid them less (for six months) until they wanted to cut costs. Look at the other reviews... four within a week with 5 stars — can you really trust that? No room to advance, no pay increases, no equity, no professional development, no coaching.
