Automattic Employee Reviews

A company that practices what it preaches. I’ve been here for 5+ years now and have loved just about every minute of it. They care about employees and provide tons of resources to help us both personally and professionally. The benefits are amazing and have been a lifesaver for my famil

Overall a very good experience. Flexibility in work schedule, reasonable salary, many benefits and perks.

The best remote company to work at!

Fantastic to work on technology that makes the world a better place.

Incredible support throughout with various benefits including coaching, training, learning resources (books, courses), flexibility, dental/health cover, insurance and some travel.

They are accessible and make effort to interact with us on a regular basis.

They listen our requirements very careful

They're more motivated by people than by profit, which is unusual in any company, let alone a tech company. In spite of this (or maybe because of it?), the company is very profitable.

They're not scared to experiment and change course based on data and experience.

Transparency, openness, and candor.] are shared values at all levels, including the exec team.

Hands down the health insurance. Every provider I go to says, “Wow, you have amazing coverage

The salaries are global and not specific to the country you work for!

The coaching benefit is really great.

International contractor in my case (no subsidiary in my country of residence): company-based life insurance policy providing two years of my salary to my chosen beneficiaries in case of any type of death while employed at Automattic.

Salary is higher than average for the country I live in.

Compared to other VC-backed companies of Automattic's size and age, the benefits -- especially for the international folks -- aren't amazing, and there are no stock option grants whatsoever. You can buy internal stock, but that isn't useful when you don't have lots of money left over every month.

My team is kind to one anotherand accepting of our differences, particularly when it involves neurodiversity.

Always willing to help. Collaboration on tasks.

Insanely smart, very experienced, shared work/quality values.

The people are talented. I'ts the one thing leadership has somehow been successful at.

Everyone at Automattic is super smart. I'm learning new things every day.

The “we are all in this together” attitude. They foster a safe environment to share your struggles and to ask for h

Openness. Trust. Flexible. Remote. Freedom

There are a lot of great people just not in management

Shared values across a most diverse employee base.

We're all on the same wave length. People pulling in the same direction makes for a much easier work environment.

Getting to experience what the job was like before I accepted the job.

Whole interview process was asynchronous where I didn't get on a single video call

Custom tailored all the way, including trial phase. Very supported throughout the latter.

I got to meet and speak to various members of the team I was due to join. It allowed me to see under the hood into the inner workings of the company before I committed.

The trial process is super useful to get to know one another.

It's a toss-up between the mission and the people.

The trust and autonomy that my coworkers -- from reports to C-level execs -- give me daily.

The autonomy and agency I have to do my work. I feel trusted and empowered.

ANything. I love being here

The project work. Troubleshooting and problem solving. Everyday is different.

Poor decisions have led to bloated products. There is no vision or strategy.
