Pros

- Some great people work there outside of leadership.

Kontras

- Read what I put below, but more importantly, just do your own research before you accept a job here: talk to past employees on Linkedin, see how long they lasted, and ask them why. It isn't a good workplace. - Those same great people I mentioned in the "pros" almost always leave within 6-12 months because the culture is toxic and/or ownership wants them out before equity kicks in. - Zero real room for growth because their mentality isn't to promote from within, but rather to work people for a year and then let them go (you're very much replaceable). - Constant flip-flopping with goals, and not in small ways, but in ways that derail projects and cause complete reboots. - Leadership that says one thing then does another. - Their engineering culture is flat out broken and secondary; they're a tech company that doesn't value tech. - The whole "unlimited vacation" thing is a load of bull; they'll give you your vacation, but they also have a real bad tendency to fire people while they are away from the office. Be careful if you choose to take that extended vacation.

I’m sorry you had a tough experience, but I'd challenge some of the ideas written here. We’re building an Engineering culture—and technology company— that prides itself on being both tech forward and human in equal measure, which is no small task, but one that we feel is crucial. The unfortunate reality is that startups and the fast-moving pace are not for everyone. Further, at least half the team has been here for more than a year and I hope they stay for another 5.

Pros

I started here a few months ago as a contractor and have had nothing but positive experiences with the Alfred team. The work is predictable for the most part which allows you to have amazing work life balance.

Kontras

My only complaint is that there is no 401k matching, but it's a start up so this is to be expected. Hopefully it will change in the future!
