Seeing some openings at upstart. How has morale and internal comms been since layffs?
Horrible
You can pretty much tell it from the usernames people have. đ
Avoid
It is turning into a mini Amazon. If you get in the right team itâs fine.
Donât think team matters you will still be impacted by the đ©amazon culture in one way or other.
Shitshow
Dumpster đ„
Correct
Bruh if you join this đ© company, I will personally punch you. Even after these warnings these ppl still want to join shit shows
classic Blind filled with complainers but wonât quit. Itâs great to work at, you learn a lot and the people are smart and kind. Iâve enjoyed my time so far
If people anonymously are saying this - there is truth to it. I wish someone would have told me before I joined. You are the anomaly not us.Also check upstart reviews on blind ratings
What does complaining (answering honestly) have to do with quitting? Some of us have mortgages to pay and mouths to feed and canât just quit when we want to even tho the culture is toxic AF. If I had known them what I know now I would not have joined Upstart.
Pretty shit. Also you won't get a 4 yr grant, it'll be year to year.. they'll bait and switch you if you're not aware.
Whatâs wrong with a 1yr grant. It helps so that you not locked in at a bad grant price for all 4 years. Every year you will earn what you was supposed to get.
You are at the mercy of the company to decide how much you get and how hard you work. Giving more and more extreme âstretch goalsâ to meet. Or if the company isnât doing well theyâll just screw us over like they did with the bonus.
