Pros

Benefits are top tier, everyone outside of the exec team is great to work with.

Cons

The CEO is an absolute nightmare to work with. I know of at least a half dozen people who left in the last year specifically because of his verbal abuse. He will praise someone, and then in the same week turn around and scream at them for something he already knew about but forgot, or changed his mind about. He hates anyone challenging him, and has at this point pushed out most of the original leadership in favor of corporate yes men. If you aren't interacting with leadership, it can be a great place to work. If you're looking to work alongside leadership though, the culture is absolutely not as advertised. Outside of the CEO, there are a couple other major issues: 1. DEI issues don't exist. They talk a good game externally but internally there are literally 0 DEI initiatives, discussion, or acknowledgement from anyone in leadership. 2. Disability and trail access issues are also a nonexistent subject. They fired the person that was passionate about improving physical accessibility information on the platform and never looked back. 3. Greenwashing - behind closed doors the leadership team doesn't care at all about the company's impact on the environment. Their public brand of being a responsible outdoor company is largely for show, there are things they know they contribute to that they refuse to address.

Pros

- We move fast and have high standards - Great benefits + trail days! (once a month we get to go hike individually or with teammates and test the app, it's such a cool perk) - Opportunities to connect in co working spaces in some cities + an all company summit this summer - We are unique in that we're small (220) employees, but financially healthy and PE-backed -- it's kind of the best of both worlds for someone like me that has worked in very spend conscious environments (Series A-C start ups), I can make fast decisions and a ton of impact but it feels more stable

Cons

- Some processes are still being built out (which can also be a pro! because we get to build them) - Priorities can change quickly

Pros

Empowered engineering team - the engineering team can make product decisions and truly drive the product forward - this is so refreshing Engineering management and leadership - new leadership actually listens and cares about career growth, how AI is used, and wants the team to grow. There’s also direction from eng leadership in a way that is not prescriptive, mostly empowering. Lastly it has been great to be able to move fast and not spend days debating.

Cons

Right now the culture is changing and becoming more agile. The pace of the work is fast moving, can lead to feeling tiring and a bit chaotic.
