If you check Stripe’s pulse score history on Blind, you see that, although it’s been declining for a long time, there was a very steep drop starting around April 17. What happened that can explain this?
People finally realizing it’s a cheap, remote company with tiny W2s and no liquidity in sight.
But why is that happening so quickly around April 17 instead of slowly or on another date?
Their valuation dropped
That was a month before the pulse score drop
We learned our yearly compensation updates and they were a joke
more details plz
Thanks for answering! That does make sense. Do you have more information?
Even high performers got puny raises at best (0-3% for vast majority).
Vesting date of April 15. This is likely from people who finished 4 years and on their way out
Or one year
Stripe blind is somewhat skewed towards projecting the worst, not to discount anyones feelings , but both the pulse and the stripes blind score definitely seemed to be skewed towards just highlighting negative reviews and don’t truly represent all the parts of stripe which are way better than what blind projects . Yes not all is unicorns, but stripe is better than blind reviews / pulse score IMHO Interestingly there are two internal posts on stripe internal talking about it and a lot the stripe employees believe it is definitely highlighting only negative parts .
PIP season comes early.
