Start-up with a passion
|
|
Pymetrics truly has a unique group of self-motivated, passionate, highly capable people and the culture is a very inclusive. There's a lot of opportunity to learn and get experience in different things.
|
It's very much a start-up and you have to embrace the chaos of that - not everything happens in a structured, organised manner and it can feel unpredictable at times.

Inspiring mission, interesting technology, amazing team
|
|
pymetrics is truly a one of a kind company, and I've enjoyed every bit of my time working alongside the bright people who make up it's DNA.
The dedication to the mission is very clearly evident at all levels & departments of the organization, and the company values are seen in everyone's day to day work.
Due to the company's ambitious mission to make hiring predictive, efficient, and bias free, there's never a shortage of technical and business challenges to solve. This makes for an environment that encourages ownership and gives those that take opportunity plenty of responsibility & credit for their achievements.
The underlying technology behind the core product is very impressive, and the product suite is constantly growing. There's a willingness to take action amongst the team to rise to the occasion, and no challenge seems unattainable.
The team at pymetrics is composed of kind, impressive, and colorful people. They make it a fantastic place to work.

Great people, opportunity to learn quickly
|
|
- Great mission to making hiring more fair, group of people that care deeply about this
- Super intelligent, thoughtful, kind and hardworking colleagues
- Opportunity to learn so much and own projects outside your direct experience based on lean team and big goals
- Smart leaders (CMO) with amazing experience willing to teach, guide, support and help you grow
- Opportunity to make a big impact by building out new functions and processes
- A culture of caring about employees with rest days, unlimited PTO, employee surveys, consistent review processes, town halls, addressing larger crisis / cultural moments like COVID-19 and the BLM movement appropriately
|
- A lot of work to do and not enough people to do it
- Typical startup pains with product / company direction

Big Vision - Questionable Execution
|
|
- Coworkers at the ground level are thoughtful and amazing to work with
- People truly feel like a team as they solve problems
- Strong mission statement
|
- Senior Management is highly reactive and does not have a clear strategic roadmap
- OKRs were attempted to be used to align the company, but couldn't even get them out the gates
- Lots of pep talks but no actionable/tangible direction about how things can actually change
- Product would rather build new products than make the ones they have actually work
- Inexperienced but vocal few tend to overrule the seasoned/experienced people
- Very big yes culture to the CEO without thinking about repercussions
- Poor work life balance (easily worked 80+ hours a week)

You hired smart people, maybe you should listen to them. Make sure that your data science pans out.
I'm sure Jenn (CPO) will respond about how pymetrics is always open to speaking with former and current employees about feedback, but keep in mind that pymetrics has had a grand total of less than 250 employees throughout its entire history. If there was any true appetite to change or be better, they would reach out and really do something with the feedback they're receiving. This isn't Google with 100k+ employees. There is time and space to have real and meaningful conversations with nearly everybody who has come and gone.

I think it's a great sign that we've had only about 250 employees throughout our history - many people have long tenures at pymetrics, and have dedicated 3,4,5,6+ years to the company, which indicates they are happy, learning and motivated. \n\nI'm glad that you enjoyed your coworkers - we love our team and think they are amazing too. Our mission is at the core of what we do and what motivates so many of us to keep working for a fair hiring process. \n\nI'm sorry to hear that you felt we stumbled in several areas - that must have been tough to experience.

We try to give equal time to all voices - as the company grows that becomes more challenging, I know. Our CEO is very receptive to feedback and loves an honest conversation - she always wants people to give her the truth. Yep, working at a startup can be challenging from a work-life balance standpoint, but we've had 5 recharge days this summer and more to come, and that's why we have unlimited vacation time in the US. \n\nWe'll take your advice on listening to our smart people - we strive to do that everyday. \n\nWe appreciate your contributions to pymetrics and wish you all the best in the future. \n\nJenn Perez\nChief People Officer", "responseOriginal": null, "countNotHelpful": 0}]

Great people and culture
|
|
I started working at pymetrics recently and have had a very positive experience so far. Coming from a company with a toxic culture, I felt immediately welcomed and supported. It's clear that upper management cares about their employees, both in terms of work-life balance and ensuring that everyone's voice is heard. Being a start up, there is tons of opportunity for autonomy and growth, and everyone works hard to make the company as successful as possible. The people are incredibly smart, hard working, and fun to be around.
|
Not exactly a con, but being a start up, it's important to be comfortable with less process and more of a figure-it-out mentality. You need to be willing to roll up your sleeves and find solutions to problems that may have never been solved before within the company. There is definitely less hand holding than being at a larger company.

Not all it's cracked up to be
|
|
The purported mission. Some genuinely intelligent and caring colleagues.
|
It's tough to really put pen to paper. Where do I start? It's interesting that the company notes they take feedback seriously on this site, but if I know this company the way I do the culture hasn't changed. Leadership claims to take feedback openly, but you're either too scared to voice out your concerns in fear of backlash (as based upon prior experiences) or if you are honest, they take no action. It's almost like you're screaming at the top of your lungs only to have those cries fall on to deaf ears.
There’s also rampant favoritism. You’ll get far in this company in spite of knowledge or experience if you’re favored by the right people, namely the executive team. Especially the two at the helm. It’s debilitating working every day knowing this fact because you’re often painted into a corner to do things to maintain the status quo even if you know substantively and commercially - it’s not the best decision.
Echoing everyone’s points, this company is very sales-driven. Understandably that is to be expected from a start-up. But there are absolutely no boundaries - if a sale needs to happen, the teams will do anything to close the deal without really considering the various impacts across the business. And when the deal’s closed, they leave the client teams to clean up the mess.
To clarify, I worked for Pymetrics before the COVID impacts.

Get new management. Understand you hired subject matter experts for a reason. What's the point of having these people on the team if at the end of the day you won't listen to them? If the CEO and President don't want to step down, at least have an advisor that has legitimate experience in running a company beyond neuroscience and HR. Though those two areas are relevant to the product itself, it's still not enough to run an actual viable business.
