I have to tell this story because what happened at Typeform is really a first for me in 15 years of professional career. I was never treated with such disregard and lack of professional respect. I interviewed with Typeform in October/November 2023, in parallel with 2 other (big)tech companies. I got to offer stage with all 3. While Typeform did not have the strongest offer in TC, they made serious efforts to match my expectations and sold a lot of hope, like an upcoming exit-event. They also provided great flexibility as a remote-first company. I accepted the offer at Typeform and proceeded to quit the role I currently had and also decline the 2 other offers I received. Then, 1 week before Christmas, the VP of People called me to tell me they rescind the offer and will not provide any support, neither financial, nor logistical, to be able to find another role. As a reason I was told that all hiring is frozen as a of executive changes. The VP of People deflected all responsibility in the call from himself -> to the board, so that he could feel "blameless" on the call and go on about how "this is so hard for him to do". Yeah, I can only imagine how hard this is for YOU, dude. This says EVERYTHING you need to know about this company. From all the people I met in the interviewing process that promised the moon & stars, not one of them came back to me to at least say "I'm sorry". While I am generally confident in my abilities and will bounce back from this, I could have done without this Xmas gift. :) My advice: during the interview process you will get sold very well on stories about how Typeform changed and how things are different now because "we have new, strong management". They are incredibly good at selling. Don't believe it. This is the type of company that will leave you out in the cold for the holidays and not think twice about it. :) Terrible business outlook for the next year - don't even consider it.

The people. Somehow Typeform is full of some of the most genuinely passionate and intelligent people I’ve ever worked with. This is a shame, because that is just about all I can say that remains positive in 2026 about Typeform.

Inconvénients

Typeform product leadership is completely out of touch and in the dark about what they should be doing to survive as a company. They’ve recently made the choice to completely divest from anything that isn’t an AI-centric product, gutting the product team of anyone not working solely on AI products. While investing in AI is definitely not a bad thing, investing ONLY in AI certainly is. Typeform is still playing competitive catch-up with essentially every competitor out there and cannot commit to a concrete strategy if their life depended on it. Leadership will get excited about an initiative and green light it only to get upset that it isn’t fully implemented in a month before deprioritizing it again. There is a backlog of years old customer requests for basic features that leadership refuses to prioritize as evidence of this flip flop approach to their strategy. When competitors that are <3 years old are able to come in and handily provide better products that are more feature rich you have to stop and wonder what you’re even doing. If TF wants to survive the next 5 years they need a serious course correction and a leadership switch up. Having a CPO that decided to be a CTO too, while having zero engineering background is certainly a choice, and one that the company is already paying for. Lastly, TF has also been stealthily gutting Product and Engineering under the guise of “performance”. If you are thinking of joining R&D do it at your own risk. There are far more stable companies with better leaders out there and I cannot recommend TF to anyone anymore. This is saddening since this was not the case until last year.
