Can anyone tell me why Ashby is so en vogue in SV and also the rest of the world? My company recently switched to it and as an EM I feel... disappointed? What's so special about it to have yet another hiring system with VC money?

Benji Co-Founder & CEO here. Curious which areas of the product you've touched on that you're disappointed with? We have ample things we want to improve - but the reason folks are switching to us is that we're well ahead of competition on most dimensions. I also was an EM on the prior generation of products which let us to build Ashby. But it's a surprisingly broad product and so takes a long time to perfect.
