1moThank you so much for sharing this 💜
It means a lot to hear such positive words, especially after 3 to 4 years at Make. We really appreciate your kind words about the salary, the office and events, the room for growth, and the transparency and feedback culture you have experienced.
We also appreciate your honest note about DEI and bonuses. Feedback like this helps highlight where expectations and experience may not be fully aligned, even when the overall experience is a positive one.
Thanks again for taking the time to leave this review. It means a lot to us.

1moThank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback after more than a year at Make, that means a lot.
We appreciate your recognition of the product, the talented people across the team, and the dedication of individuals who continue to care deeply about what we are building. It is also meaningful to hear that these strengths still stood out in your overall experience.
At the same time, we take seriously the concerns you raised around compensation, career development, cross-functional alignment, and the perception of inconsistency in how contribution is recognized. Feedback like this points to areas that have a real impact on trust, motivation, and the day-to-day employee experience.
Your advice around rewarding genuine talent, improving alignment, and investing in people development is important. Thank you again for sharing your perspective and for helping us see more clearly where we need to improve as an employer.

2moThank you for taking the time to share this, and for the years you spent with Make!
We’re very glad to hear that you saw a lot of positives in your experience, from the product itself to the Makers around you and the overall environment. That matters a lot to us.
We also take your concerns seriously. On compensation, we recently completed company-wide salary reviews to ensure our pay remains competitive on the talent market. At the same time, we know compensation is experienced individually, and feedback like this is still important.
Your point about the cultural shift within Make is also a fair one. As we grow, keeping the right balance between structure and the energy, ownership, and pace is something crucial for us and we continue to work on it.
Your advice to management is brief, but the message behind it is clear.
Thank you

1moThanks for taking the time to share your view.
Decisions that impact our people are always the hardest to make. While we’ve had to evolve our team structure to better support the future of Make, we realize that these transitions are difficult on a personal level. We’re grateful for everyone who’s contributed to Make and are doing everything we can to support those affected through the transition.
On the culture points — we take this seriously. Radical Candor is a core value at Make, and that includes being open to hard feedback like this. Leadership communication is something we're actively working to improve, and feedback like this helps us do that.
Thank you.

Used to be one of the best companies I have worked for

1wStill a current Maker who cares enough to write this. That matters!
Smart people, a product with real potential and nice colleagues who still care. You clearly see what Make can be and that is an environment we are building.
Radical Candor runs both ways. Receiving difficult feedback without routing around it is the standard at every level, leadership included. Where that hasn't held, it's a real gap.
Make shifted to a high-performance model built around five operating principles: Extreme Ownership, Get It Done, Craftsmanship, Radical Candor, Embrace Change. Not every experience of that shift has been smooth, and we are constantly trying to improve it.
Thank you for writing this. People who still care are exactly who we want to hear from. You can definitely always reach us at people@make.com if you're open to sharing more.

2yThank you for sharing such detailed feedback! We're thrilled to hear that you appreciate our office perks, transparent communication, and supportive atmosphere. It's great to know that you find our processes well-defined and our communication channels open, including the anonymous Slack channel for questions to C-level executives.
Your insights on promotions, developer rig preferences, and home office dynamics are valuable to us. We'll take your suggestions into consideration. We are not planning to have a gym anytime soon, but maybe in the future? I'd love that too.
Our aim is to continuously improve the employee experience at Make, and your input guides us in the right direction. We're grateful to have you as part of our team and appreciate your dedication to making Make a great place to work!

Great product and people, leadership lacks vision or strategy but puts blame on employees

2moThank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We really appreciate the level of detail, even when it is critical.
Couple of the points you raise reflect real tensions that come with a fast-evolving product and organization such as Make is. As we scale and compete in a very fast market, we are putting more structure around strategy, prioritization, and how decisions are communicated and received. This is an ongoing process, and we are aware that it does not always feel consistent from the inside yet.
We also take very seriously the feedback around how discussions and feedback are handled. Thus our core value: Radical Candor. Our goal is to create and keep a space where input from teams is not only heard, but actively shapes decisions of the company as a whole. We know this requires hard continuous work, especially as Make grows.
Nevertheless, we are glad to see you highlight the strength of the people, cross-functional collaboration, and flexibility. These are areas we actively invest in and value and want to preserve as we continue to evolve.
We are committed to improving how we operate while growing and continuing to build a product that has real impact. Feedback like this, even when it's hard to read, is an important part of that process.
