Pros

-Competitive Salary -I loved my team and direct manager -Decent WLB, I did not have any work-life balance issues that some of these reviews talk about -WFH and Continuing Education Stipend

Cons

-They can't do math, apparently. After being recruited from a super stable Fortune 500 company, I was laid off after working for Socure for 6 months. There was a hairpin turn from 'we need to double the company to 1,000 employees' to 'we aren't meeting our numbers and need to layoff 1/3 of our workforce.' I can only guess this is because they can't do math and wildly miscalculated their revenue projections. -Lack of Diversity & Inclusion initiatives -No cross company networking channels (on Slack or otherwise)

Pros

Business is taking off like a rocket ship - the product is the best in the business - smartest & hardest working people I've met in my career.

Cons

Very demanding. You need broad shoulders to work here. Not a place to just collect a paycheck.

Pros

Absolutely nothing. I guess you could say above-market pay, but it's only because they know if they don't, they'd lose everyone.

Cons

Where to even begin. The executive team has to have a hand in everything — and I mean everything. The experienced ones are dismissive and rude; the inexperienced ones act like they know more than you and expect you to fall in line. You can sense the insecurity in how they operate. It'd be almost funny if it weren't so demoralizing. Excited to contribute real domain knowledge? Prepare to be told you're wrong, have your work torn apart without any acknowledgment of the effort behind it, and watch executives with final approval on everything deflate projects they barely understand. Work/life balance? That's a myth here. They expect 24/7 availability — and they'll bypass professional channels entirely to call or text you directly. PTO requires multiple levels of approval and you'll still be contacted while you're off. Accountability? Only for you. The "rules for thee, not for me" culture is real. You're expected to constantly produce more and perform better, but don't expect the same from leadership. They won't be held to the same standard. Hiring is a joke. They talk about "hiring for excellence." What they mean is: hiring whoever has a relationship with the right executive, regardless of qualifications. The bottom line: I know Glassdoor reviews get dismissed as venting. But I want to be clear — joining this company was the worst professional decision of my career. There's no real culture, no ethics, no sense of mutual respect. It's purely transactional, and the moment they decide you're expendable, they'll let you go without warning and without any humanity. Do your due diligence before accepting an offer here.
