Company has Changed
|
|
Hiring bar is very high, so working here will give you exposure to some of the best minds in engineering. Most people outside of management cared a lot.
I think the company is on a good path, but there were a lot of casualties along the way. Teams were cut, people were overworked and told to leave as soon as their utility was exhausted, and I think most people who left before me did so on bad terms.
|
Slowly the culture has disappeared and been replaced with directives from the exec team to shut up and work. Work-life balance is either great or non-existent, but vacation is now only reserved for engineers who have been there long enough to be irreplaceable. It wasn't uncommon for people to either take 4 days of vacation and be shamed for taking time off because "we're busy" (we were always busy), or 8 weeks and thanked for their service often. You're either a favorite who gets promoted often and praised, or you're forgotten and glossed over every year. Most of the company falls into the second bucket.
All the perks we had have been taken away slowly, with the main perk now being "a paycheck". Compensation is on the low end (no bonus, decent base, bad equity), and all the issued stock options I got while working there are worthless now after a fundraise (a nice way to treat the people who helped get the company where it is today). Employees still there have to re-vest all their options.
Diversity is something we talked about, but typically hires were either H1Bs or experienced hires, so not a lot of room for diversity.

We have taken your feedback seriously and would also like to outline steps that we have taken to consistently improve, especially during a pandemic.\n\nIn 2020, the company switched its product to focus completely on Financial Crimes. While this did create a slight change in personnel, very little reorganization was done to our teams. We do a comprehensive review of competitive salary packages on an annual basis. During this review process, increases were given where appropriate. This process has not been altered, even during this pandemic period. Although our current average tenure is almost double the average tenure in the Bay Area, we are consistently looking at ways to keep our current employees engaged with the opportunities that align with employee\u2019s career goals.\n\nWe pride ourselves on giving employees the flexibility to achieve their own work-life balance. However, we understand that flexible time off can be underutilized when it\u2019s not required to use. We will continue to empower our employees to communicate their needs when it comes to time off. Employees are also encouraged to submit anonymous feedback, questions, and concerns through our virtual suggestion box, which are reviewed monthly by our Employee Engagement Committee. \n\nDue to the recent COVID-19 pandemic, our in-office perks unfortunately no longer exist. Instead, all employees are encouraged to work where they feel comfortable with their safety being our main priority at this time. We also understand that, during this unprecedented time, our company culture was challenged by becoming a fully remote culture. As an HR Team, we introduced different channels of engagement to try and fill that in-person gap felt across the entire organization. We sent care packages to every employee at the onset of the pandemic. We\u2019ve held happy hours with hosted games such as a scavenger hunt, recipe competitions, and trivia. We launched a remote-friendly, purpose-built program to help facilitate the human connection we\u2019d normally have in an in-person office setting. \n\nAgain, we thank you for your response and we have strongly taken your feedback into consideration.", "responseOriginal": null, "countNotHelpful": 0}]

Great people and great place to work
|
|
You can work with a group of smart, nice and hard-working people. Also, you have many learning opportunities and are encouraged to do what you are interested in. Work-life balance is great and you may work remotely sometimes. Catered meals and flexible PTOs.

Brilliant people, especially in data science. This is an engineering culture, and the founders know how to identify and work with truly talented engineers. Working on great products that add value to users, which is satisfying. Work-life balance is very, very good for a start-up for most employees. There are some occasional long hours and stress, but management is always supportive and understanding. Super smart and empathetic CEO.
|
Very strong personalities in management level positions that need to align--both personally and on strategy. The company is so close to the breakthrough we've been waiting for. Now's the time to set the course.

Powerful science ruined by upper management
|
|
Very smart data scientists and engineers. Modern benefits you'd expect from a Bay Area start up. Great place to grow as an individual contributor / young professional who needs to pick up the basics of product workflow, engineering, data science.
|
Upper management has no idea what they want Quantifind to be, so they reinvent the company every few months. Brand business is completely lost in employee turnover and lack of strong leadership. Platform is a homemade BI tool that is far more expensive than superior competitors.

A wonderful, kind place
|
|
- Awesome culture: kind people, ability to fail fast and learn quickly, no BS, agile sprint system
- Ability to learn cross-functionally: tons of collaboration between Customer Success, Product, Data Science, and Engineering, which leads to a ton of innovation. Many new products/ideas have come from this meeting of minds
- Great benefits for a startup of ~50-60 people: 401K with match, 90% healthcare coverage (includes dental and vision), stocks, free lunch and breakfast during the week, company-sponsored happy hours and fun events
- Huge upside: strong SaaS product with a ton of potential
- Great place to start your career/come with a few years experience, or pivot from another industry into tech/SaaS/data science
|
- Commute can be long from SF - live near Caltrain if you commute

Great place to grow your career and to learn from the best people
|
|
I have seen so many (myself included) who have grown their career tremendously at Quantifind. The high-intensity work and a close-knit group really demand every individual to carry the weight. It's so rare to be given such immense responsibility and visibility in an organization, at this stage of our careers. Perhaps because of the selectiveness, Quantifind has gathered an amazing team, so lots of learning opportunities if you put in the work.
The culture at Quantifind truly feels like a big family -- you will become friends with your coworkers, even outside of the work. Needless to say the other standard perks that come with working in a start-up in this area: free lunch, good medical benefits, flexible PTOs, lots of fun happy hours and lunch convos.
|
Know what you are signing up to be part of a start-up -- it's challenging work but lacking a cohesive product vision at times. You will get to work on many interesting problems and constantly innovating, but not sure what might come out of it. Workload fluctuates depending on how many client accounts are on the table. Historically, this company tends to favor candidates with great pedigrees, despite their social ability, but it's been improving and thanks to the awesome HR team!
