Pros

Rippling’s product is fantastic, and you’ll know how good it is if you’ve used other products Has opportunity to grow your career if you work like 15 hours a day or if you’re good at politics (so at least it’s an opportunity for people who want to grow fast) Overall compensation package (including RSUs) is decent

Cons

Unfortunately, Rippling has a lot of cons from both startups and large companies’ side. On one hand, Rippling has passed the startup phase based on the number of employees that it has, but it still functions as a startup company: crazy working hours (12 hours a day is standard) with no WLB, literally no benefits, no clear career growth path as everyone cares about KPIs and growth, no process on a lot of things, the leadership team thinks that they know all the details, so micro-manage everything, and they don’t trust the talents that they hired. On the other hand, Rippling started to hire high level positions from large companies, and these people are just so good at politics, so politics are everywhere even if you’re not on the senior leadership teams.

Pros

- Culture encourages extreme ownership - Company has very specific preferences around how to effectively work and collaborate which is widely emphasized. This type of clarity is mostly refreshing. - The continued investment and execution (now with AI) is inspiring. - Great place to be if you want to be push the boundary of what is possible. Feels like Rippling is uniquely positioned for this moment with the right platform and leadership to win.

Cons

- The number of products can be overwhelming although many teams are specialized. - Things break and customers have issues due to huge variation in use cases and the speed of innovation. Can cause a lot of distractions.
