Pros

You get to work alongside a lot of smart and kind people

Cons

Went through a fairly substantial phase of internal combustion; is just now shaking out and getting back on track. The promotion cycle is disparate across company divisions.

Thanks so much for the review and for calling out the smart, kind people at Iterable. It’s great that you recognize that we’re on the other side of recent transitions and getting back on track. We are leaning hard into our new leadership expectations and V2MOM framework to ensure our promotion processes become more consistent and objective across the entire org. -Jim Bartolomea, CPCO

Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback! It’s great to hear that the shift in our leadership and the focus on moving faster is resonating with you. We are committed to building a culture of high performance and ensuring our promotion processes are fair and objective. Our new leadership expectations are a big part of that, designed to give us a shared standard for what "great" looks like at Iterable. I also appreciate your advice on staying close to our customers; that focus is exactly what we mean when we talk about our core value of "running as one." Thanks again for being part of the team and for your honest perspective. -Jim Bartolomea, CPCO

Pros

Iterable is one of those rare companies where the culture isn't a slide in an all-hands deck. It's something you actually feel every single day. There's a genuine warmth between teams, a "we're figuring this out together" energy that never tips into chaos because the leadership knows how to hold the room. The exec team is sharp, transparent, and treats employees like adults . You get context on decisions, not just directives. What's stood out most is the tangible investment in people: career development conversations that actually happen, managers who advocate for their teams, and a consistent signal that your growth matters beyond your current role. For anyone who's been burned by companies that say the right things but don't follow through, Iterable is different.

Cons

Growth at this stage of the company means priorities shift, and teams need to be comfortable with some ambiguity. Processes are still maturing in certain areas, which can occasionally slow execution. If you need a perfectly structured environment to do your best work, there's an adjustment period. But for the right person, that ambiguity is the opportunity.

I really appreciate you sharing such a thoughtful perspective on what it’s like to lead here at Iterable. It’s great to hear that our focus on transparency and "treating employees like adults" is being felt. Providing the "why" behind our decisions is something the executive team takes very seriously. You hit on a key point regarding the trade-off between speed and structure; while we're working hard to mature our systems, I love the mindset that the current ambiguity is actually an opening for talented people to shape our future. We are fully committed to keeping our foot on the gas when it comes to investing in our people and protecting the cultural intentionality that sets us apart. -Jim Bartolomea, CPCO
