Pros

This company has a ton of potential. The idea of an entire suite of HR software built on top of a common data platform is immensely useful. In today's push to have an AI story for everything, Rippling definitely has an advantage.

Cons

This place is chaotic. Their idea of feature planning is just pushing imperatives from top down across the company. Kind of impressed company of this size can pivot constantly. Tech stack is a mess. No one has time to really fix it due to the non stop onslaught of the next greatest thing you have to build.

Pros

I have only been at Rippling for a month at this point, but so far so good! The onboarding and training are top tier. Definitely the best and most in depth training I have gotten at a company. My manager is great and was also an IC at Rippling for a couple years before moving into management which I really like because they understand what it is like to be an account manager here. There seems to be a lot of opportunity for career growth here. I am definitely excited to be here!

Cons

Not really a con but you HAVE to be self sufficient here. People are willing to help but they are also very busy so it might be a while before you get a response to a question. It was an adjustment at first but I think it makes you a better employee. If you need hand holding probably not the job for you. I don't really have any true cons yet, but ask me again in 6 months lol.
