Pros

Decent benefits Remote work opportunity

Cons

Lack of competitive pay. No room for professional development or growth in any regard. The company has committed to this plan multiple years in a row with no significant success, continuing to hire externally for promotional roles and refusing to promote internal team members into those roles. Lack of work-life balance. Many expectations for you to go above and beyond in your role without any form of compensation or award bonuses. Executive leadership team implementing changes willy-nilly without any evidence to back the decisions. This has led to a devastating loss of functionality in handling client resources and implementation due to recent changes. Failing infinite growth model. After a recent acquisition by a tech investment company, the expectation follows the failing infinite growth model plaguing the tech industry. Features being created and published with bugs at a blistering pace that our clients have complained about many times, but the executives do not listen. Instead of focusing on the successes of the company, if we miss a revenue target even slightly, it leads to layoffs and massive structure changes.

Not as good as it used to be

Pros

Supporting the philanthropy sector is a rewarding experience. The customer base is generally overly grateful, which makes you feel proud of your work. Most team members work there because they believe in the greater good of philanthropy.

Cons

Foundant used to be the place to work if you wanted to work/life balance to be more than just a buzzword. Organizational growth and changes in leadership changed the culture. Foundant stopped sharing company insights and it no longer felt like leadership was being honest or accountable.

Pros

- Real, complex problems to solve in philanthropy. - A few engineers were thoughtful and collaborative. - If managed right, can actually support good social impact

Cons

My experience: Culture needs intention: Day-to-day felt tense rather than supportive. Calls often ran hot, and time wasn’t always respected. Everyone seemed a bit afraid of making the wrong move, which slowed progress. Nice people, light experience: Many teammates are good humans but relatively inexperienced for modern product/UX execution. The org hasn’t really invested in culture, coaching, or repeatable practices. Product roles without product backgrounds: Several product managers/owners came from non-product, non-tech areas (e.g., accounting) and were still learning product thinking. Decisions were slow, debates long, and it was hard to get crisp product direction. Not design/research-driven: This isn’t a UX- or data-driven company. You’ll need to provide heavy guidance and frameworks yourself. Research tools, structured discovery, and evidence-based decisions were limited. Old-school delivery: Legacy products and “how we’ve always done it” often overruled good UX rationale. Getting consistency across multiple systems without resources felt unrealistic. Interview/onboarding signals: My long technical interview was entirely verbal (no portfolio/case review), and one interviewer was notably disengaged. Later, a simple one-week start-date shift request was declined with little discussion—felt needlessly rigid.
