Pros

Great pay once you rise above entry level, snacks, day-to-day teams are a close-knit trauma-bonded family, great original product (not the acquired one)

Cons

Especially sales leadership truly enables and protects toxic bro frat hustle culture mentality. Over-drinking at company AND CLIENT events, unprofessional employee behavior in-front of and with clients and when incidents are reported to HR, the reporters are pushed out (sometimes immediately). Most female employees fear retaliation for speaking up. But leadership sweeps it under the rug and protects problematic people that drink too much and cross a line (multiple times) if you close big deals. Sales team was not a friendly environment to females. Ultimately reached a point where I was so demotivated not seeing any action taken against very problematic employees (yes multiple) that I no longer cared about my role or the company’s success despite loving my day-to-day team and the original core product.

Pros

- Movable has an amazing culture with great people. It's so much easier to collaborate cross functionally at a place like this when their are so many kind people in other functions that genuinely want to help you move forward. - Very flexible with WFH and remote work. Great benefits. - Strong ENT customer list with some of the biggest brands in the world - Love the attention to events and getting in front of prospects/clients - Rare to see an executive team as accessible and helpful as this one - Diverse culture amongst the team I'm on and the teams we interact with

Cons

- Can always use more enablement for career growth which seems to be a new focus this year - Clearer paths to promotion/raises

Pros

Real career development. I've grown significantly over my tenure here, taking on increasing responsibility across a global scope. That kind of trajectory requires a culture that actually backs its people. Values-driven leadership. Integrity and excellence aren't just wall art here. Leadership consistently models the behavior it expects, which builds real trust across the org. The work is meaningful and complex. This is a company where you're solving hard problems with smart people. If you want to be challenged, you will be. The culture has staying power. Long tenure across the team is common, and it's not by accident. People stay because there's always a next challenge and a next level. Resilience through change. The company has navigated significant transitions while keeping its culture largely intact. That's not easy and speaks to the strength of the foundation.

Cons

Growth and change bring ambiguity. If you need a perfectly structured environment to thrive, that's worth knowing going in. If you lean into it, the upside is real.
