Strong team and ownership, but odd evaluation methods - Avis employé Senior Software Engineer Rippling

Experience at a fast pace start-up, always learning something new, unlimited PTO (which is necessary).

Raised our monthly quota metrics by 20k 5 days into the month with the premise of AI boom. No actual data of how AI product sells prior to quota strategy adjustment - comically disrespectful. Unrealistic work standards - supporting books of business with 500+ accounts, highly re-active role, often abusive experiences externally, as well as internally. Everyone is so over capacity it's a name game and finger point on who created X issue, more energy / time spent on individuals avoiding accountability / responsibility - truly exhausting. Not to mention, you are completely overwhelmed with notifications - +100 slack dms daily, escalation emails, support tickets. There is no capacity to give clients the attention that is required, creates an endless feedback loop. Burnout is the #1 issue, and has been communicated and acknowledged for over a year, no changes have been set in place.

Nice people, autonomy, good budget to work with.

The work-life “balance” is 80% work, 20% life. Do not work here if you want to have a life outside of this job. Rippling works you to death and doesn’t pay quite enough to make it worth it (or have that great of benefits - especially for being an HR tech company…?).
