Pros

Great mission and CEO story, we all want to maximize our potential CEO sold me on the awards they’ve gotten and the growth opportunity for my career Remote job Can travel to Australia once a year, which is the HQ Friendly employees with pleasant accents They really sold me during the interview process and made me feel very desired Diversity - lots of females in leadership roles Creative marketing

Kontras

It’s a complete bait & switch. CEO told me they are a US company and work US hours - you will work Australian hours no matter where you live in the world. Co-workers appear happy - then they confide in you they cry each day before work and are scared, but you can’t tell anyone you know. Sales team doesn’t know what part of the product they are selling is live, in the roadmap or a far off vision - when I brought this up, I got in trouble and was told to not change a thing with sales. In fact, I was told to never talk to sales again and to only get my information from the CEO. Everyone is friendly in group meetings - then you find out they are all complaining about each other and throwing each other under the bus. CEO is controlling, is a first time founder and has never worked in software - besides understanding the problem to solve (because she worked in HR and experienced the wasted potential problem) she has no idea what she’s doing, and if you bring your experience to the table with ideas, they are seen as not aligned with her and all those people mysteriously disappear. Toxic culture inside and out. Make sure you get all your expenses reimbursed immediately before they let you go or you leave - or you may not get paid back. It’s a rotating door, get used to co-workers disappearing. Good place if you want to just do what the CEO asks without bringing opinion or experience to the table. Good place to work if you don’t want to grow your career. Good place to work if you want to learn to navigate untruths and a toxic work culture. Good place to work if you like 1:1’s where people share stories of why they are scared. Good place to work if you like leadership talking at you. Good place to work if you thrive off gossip vs. working as a team to get work done. They were desperate to hire me and put a lot of pressure on me to accept the offer - I wish I read the tea leaves better.

Pros

- Caring leadership - Great product, this is going to go! - Abundant opportunity to shine - Fantastic people and culture

Kontras

- If you don't understand startups it can be tough, you're building the plane while flying it! (If you do know what it's like to work in a scaling startup, please disregard as a con) - If you're looking to clock in at 9 and leave at 5 with an hour lunch and no asks outside that time it might not be for you (yet!). I feel very balanced in my work personally and the calls/work outside 9-5 are 100% doable, I just say it as anyone looking for rigid daily tasks and clock in/clock out times might find the work cumbersome. What is great is that the company realizes it and helps its employees make time for themselves along the way. The majority of my day is standard office hours so I never mind putting more in outside work whenever needed.

Pros

Having been a part of Reejig for some time now, the mission is why i joined. Like any start up its been hit by the economy so we have had to do more with less.

Kontras

A couple of things they need to work on The drive we have is awesome, but it often leads to extended work hours. A bit more emphasis on a balanced schedule would be great.
