private:kickup https://www.glassdoor.com?employer_id=1400125 Apr 26th, 2022 12:00AM Open Open KickUp growing young company, figuring things out Tons of autonomy and room to grow. Full of kind and thoughtful people building a needed product. Good boundaries and balance for a startup. Lots of things are still getting figured out and the landscape is constantly shifting, so it can be a bit disorienting. Lack of clear career pathways means you have to advocate for yourself and chart your own path. 1.0 POSITIVE 0.0 NEUTRAL 0.0 4.0 5.0 4.0 4.0 4.0 5.0 4.0 1400125 Open 0.0 [] REGULAR No Yes 2.0 Apr 27th, 2022 04:21PM Apr 27th, 2022 04:21PM KickUp Consumer Services General Retailers
private:kickup https://www.glassdoor.com?employer_id=1400125 Apr 11th, 2021 12:00AM Open Open KickUp Software Engineer Philadelphia, PA Solidly Okay KickUp in general: - Good work-life balance, pretty laid-back work environment - Office location is really convenient - Coworkers are chill, there's plenty of opportunity to socialize if you're into it, and no obligation to if you're not - Their product generally serves a social good - You (probably) get equity options - Benefits package is decent Software Engineering specifically: - A good place to build solid experience in full-stack development using modern, widely-used frameworks and tools; a couple years here would qualify most people for positions at least one level up the seniority rung at most (web developement) shops you'd want to work at - The small size of the company ensures you end up seeing every part of the process of producing and maintaining a modern web app - The small size of the development team means you see your own impact pretty clearly KickUp in general: - Being a small startup with first-time founders, they're figuring a lot of things out as they go, which has definite downsides: sudden shifts in product direction; awkward pushes to build "company culture" and team cohesion; and the most disappointing -- coworkers just _vanish_ without any warning, with leadership giving some canned "KickUp and so-and-so have parted ways" updates at team meetings - To the extent there is a company culture, it has a passive-aggressive streak: people that in other companies would be considered "assertive" or "direct", at KickUp are often considered "confrontational" or "aggressive" - Salary is a bit below market (you get equity options but those don't pay rent) - The office is "open concept" and a bit cramped, there's not a lot of places to have solitude or silence; there are two offices on the same floor, with 2 single-person bathrooms shared by ~25 people - The company is strangely cheap when it comes to equipment (e.g. laptops) Software Engineering specifically: - Due to being a startup with a very definite funding runway, engineering is a bit of a feature factory, so you won't get any experience with architecture or system design; the main challenge of projects is completing them on time, rather than posing interesting technical challenges - Most technical choices are made by the CTO and/or the lead engineer behind closed doors, so "leading" a project doesn't really imply any autonomy, but rather ensuring outstanding tasks in the project tracker are up to date, and giving updates at team meetings - Engineering at KickUp is vanilla full-stack development, which isn't necessarily bad, but there's nothing really beyond that: no AI or ML, no distributed systems, no low-level performance tuning - There's too many meetings 0.0 NEUTRAL 0.0 3.0 4.0 3.0 3.0 3.0 3.0 3.0 1400125 Open 0.0 [] REGULAR No No 2.0 Apr 12th, 2021 11:50AM Jun 30th, 2021 10:15AM KickUp Consumer Services General Retailers
private:kickup https://www.glassdoor.com?employer_id=1400125 Mar 19th, 2021 12:00AM Open Open KickUp Philadelphia, PA Mission-driven company filled with a team-first mentality Smart, thoughtful, feedback-driven people at all levels Shared ownership; teams that want to support each other's work Transparent leadership An innovative, forward-thinking product poised to win market share A focus on staff culture & equity Early-stage - a pro for many, but if you're looking for a role that is already strictly outlined with guardrails for success, it might not be the right fit. Limited promotion opportunities - the company promotes a lot internally and proactively focuses on leadership opportunities within existing roles, but it's still a relatively flat org 1.0 POSITIVE 1.0 POSITIVE 1.0 5.0 5.0 5.0 5.0 5.0 5.0 4.0 1400125 Open Continue investing in talent, promotion pathways, and building an intentional and inclusive culture. 0.0 [] REGULAR No Yes 4.0 Mar 20th, 2021 01:26PM Jun 30th, 2021 10:15AM KickUp Consumer Services General Retailers

Focus on customers. Strong technology vision. Good people work here. Technically rigid in some cases. Maybe a bit too rigid considering how new they are to the market. They also have very little vision of how to address large district market. 1.0 POSITIVE 0.0 NEUTRAL 1.0 4.0 4.0 5.0 4.0 3.0 5.0 5.0 1400125 Open Be patient, if possible. Your people and technology are good for EdTech and the customers will notice. Push the product team to create new ways to respond to non-standard/custom requests. 0.0 [] REGULAR No No 1.0 Nov 19th, 2020 09:47AM Jun 30th, 2021 10:15AM KickUp Consumer Services General Retailers
