- unlimited PTO - decent pay

Minpunten

Oof where do I begin. What was once a prime example of a growing tech company in the heart of Silicon Valley, quickly became a huge disappoint. All of the founders were either pushed out by the board or left because they saw the writing on the wall. New leadership and managers who were promoted from within all lack basic leadership principals to save this company. The product is going absolutely no where. It’s a very niche, behind the scenes product that doesn’t actually drive innovation. I experienced four different rounds of layoffs during my time there, and everyone who once made the company a fun, thriving place to work has since left. I’m honestly surprised they are still in business. I would stay far away from this company.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback. Agreed that the open PTO is a great perk, and we put a lot of time into making sure our compensation is competitive, so we are happy to hear that you found your pay to be fair during your time! We also know that leadership changes and layoffs, especially when it comes to the departure of founders and people you’re close to, can be really disruptive and impactful to the people still working there. These are not decisions that are made lightly, and it sounds like they negatively your experience at Branch, which is completely understandable. We are truly sorry that this led to you feeling like what you loved about the culture was no longer there. We appreciate your concern with the product as well, and our Product and Engineering teams are working hard to continue to innovate and keep our position as a market leader. It looks like you are no longer with Branch, but if there is any feedback that you would like to share that you feel could improve the experience for others currently here, please always feel free to reach out to DK or anyone on the People team. We wish you the best of luck in whatever is next!

Pluspunten

Compensation is fair and even above market rate for some positions, insurance/benefits are amazing for a company this size, and engineers are allowed to work without a lot of red tape of bureaucracy to do what needs to be done. Additionally, management is actively invested in employee development regularly making it a point to participate in experimentation for experimentation purposes; leading to ahead of the curb distributed stack adoptions.

Minpunten

Very few other than communications between teams could be better.
