Pros

Nice equipment, nice office, a lot of good people, although a lot of them are leaving.

Cons

* Management asked the Auckland office to fill in positive Glassdoor reviews a while back to help address the image problems. * Very high turn over. * Forced merriment - twice-weekly meetings where you have to cheer and clap. * They play "Everything is Awesome" from the Lego movie at these meetings. * Refusal to talk about problems, because "Everything is Awesome", no problems in this paradise. * Management makes technical decisions, not open/available to discuss their rationale. These people will wear you down and throw you out.

Pushpay Response

We work hard to be an open, honest culture of continuous feedback, so I'm sorry to hear that you felt unable to talk about some problems while you were here. While I wasn't there when the request was made to leave a review, I do know that our position is we do not ask for positive reviews. Instead, we ask for staff to give honest insight into their experience at Pushpay to help candidates know what it's like to work here. To speak to some of your comments, we did move away from the two meetings per week about a year ago based on staff feedback. We do continue to maintain a culture of celebrating success, and more importantly, each other, so clapping is still a part of this. People are at the center of everything we do - from those who make up our organisation to the many customers and communities who get to be on the receiving end of increased generosity. We recognise that Pushpay wouldn't exist without our people, and we'll continue to foster an environment in which people come first, are valued, and celebrated. We wish you the best.

Pros

Individual coworkers are amazing. People believe deeply in the mission of the company and work hard.

Cons

Compensation is not where it should be considering the office locations and lack of remote work options. Hiring and promotion is very political. Processes are extremely inefficient, so "running lean" just becomes "overworked and underpaid", especially with current roles not being backfilled when people leave.
