In for the long run
|
|
Nice start-up to work for
Great product and service platform
Awesome coworkers
|
Little or no chances of advancement in the CS department, unless is lateral.
Initial pay rate is pretty good based on location, but after that there's no raises
Engineers turn-out can be high at times resulting in product development lags

Amazing product, community and team.

Team was split by location (lots of engineers were based in south africa, which made it hard to communicate)

Small company, big goals and fun co-workers.
|
No career management or path. Instead of focusing on innovative product features, the company was seemingly run to bolster the careers of upper management and the founders. The end users were left with a stagnant feature set that to this day is so buggy not even an ex-employee would want to use it.

Huge learnings, great colleagues, some mistakes.

Smart people, particularly in Engineering. Great colleagues. Ability to learn and grow, and make an impact in all areas of the business. The technology exposure is top notch.

The company suffered from some early mismanagement and struggles to shake the scars thereof.

Start-ups aren't for the faint-hearted.
|
|
The work from home policy and flexitime policies are really helpful, in that I can structure my days to suit myself.
Yola hires exceptionally talented and bright individuals, and working with them is an absolute pleasure. I have learned a lot about business, strategy and teamwork from Yola.
The managers and exec team are exceptionally transparent and very open to suggestions. In fact, when any issues arise, the exec call upon the staff to try find solutions. This is awesome, and displays the tremendous amount of trust that the upper management have in the team.
|
Being able to structure your work day to suit yourself is not how work should be. Work should be a set period of 9-10 hours, within which you work. You should then be able to go home and forget about work. Because Yola is a start-up, there's the drive to work 24/7, and working from home just exacerbates this and ends up making your job your life. This causes burnout, stress, dissatisfaction and relationship issues.
The start-up environment is also extremely limited, budget-wise. Don't expect a raise, a bonus or a budget for anything. Team members who leave are not replaced - the work just gets spread out among the remaining team, which just means everyone has to work harder.
