Pluspunten

Postman is a great product with many enthusiastic and talented engineers and other employees behind it.

Minpunten

I was very disappointed with the way executives handled our reorganization, firings, and a serious sexual assault allegation at a Postman event. It's understandable that a company of this size needs to go through organizational shifts, and that can be very difficult for everyone involved. However, when management does not stay true to company values, it creates a huge rift. It was unfortunate to see an enthusiastic team get beaten down by uncertainty and poor leadership. Another major issue was that an employee experienced sexual assault at a company event and was not acknowledged by management when this event was reported. The person in question never received any help and ended up quitting because of the unsafe environment. Postman was once wonderful to work for, but in light of my experience, the mismanagement of employees, and the negligent attitude around employee safety, I cannot recommend that anyone should put themself in this unhealthy atmosphere.

Hi! Thanks for taking the time to voice your concerns. We restructured the org with the vision and mission of Postman in mind; most growing startups do this to go to the next level. Our goal is to stay true to our values while we do everything we can to make sure that our employees are safe, happy and productive. That's why we have anonymous employee feedback surveys so that we're aware of the impact of our actions. Regarding the sexual assault allegation: Postman has a zero-tolerance sexual harassment policy. We're committed to protecting employees in every situation, whether it's on our premises or in an event outside it. We have strict policies and mechanisms to address these issues, including a confidentiality policy which means that we keep the course of actions, and the identity of involved people, discreet. The sequence of events laid out in this post is inaccurate and we encourage you to reach out to us if this matter affected you. Warm Regards, Postman Team

Very positive and straightforward interview process. Best onboarding I've ever been a part of - I felt ready to sell immediately after Flight School. After my first 30 days, I'm even more excited to be here. The sales org recently went through somewhat of a transition period but things have leveled out and excitement is building around the new direction and product - the culture being built is excellent.

Minpunten

Internal processes are still being built out further to improve deal velocity

Pluspunten

1. The work is timely, relevant, and consequential — sitting at the forefront of the tech industry with real-world impact. I really enjoy my job. The work itself is engaging — the day-to-day tasks, the problems to solve, the craft of actually doing the job. That's not something everyone can say, and it makes a real difference. 2. People make a meaningful difference. Day-to-day job satisfaction is largely shaped by the colleagues you work alongside, and I feel genuinely seen, respected, and valued. But beyond the professional — the relationships I've built here go deeper than typical work friendships. The people aren't just great colleagues; they've become real friends, and that kind of connection is rare and worth noting. 3. As a company transitioning out of the startup stage, Postman offers a level of access to senior leadership that's rare at larger organizations — along with the strategic relationships, mentorship, and perspective that comes with it. 4. The combination of Postman's growth trajectory, the opportunity to be part of building and scaling the company, along with the proximity to leadership makes this a compelling career move for anyone who wants to be close to what's happening in tech right now.

Minpunten

Postman is in an active growth phase — moving beyond startup mode and into scale, which naturally brings change and growing pains. That's common for any company at this stage.
