Poor Management, Poor Execution, Takes No Feedback, Doesn't Care about Employees
Pros
1. Great colleagues and camaraderie 2. Good benefit 3. Flexible hours
Cons
1. First-time C suites (from academia) with no humility to listen: They hire experienced team but don't listen to them. Experience to them are considered as 'personal biases'. Your opinion will only be heard indirectly when it's validated by external industry experts. Most of the employees who have more industry experience than the management have already left the company. 2. Poor human resource management: The reviews that you see before 2020 are probably from the good old times. In the past 12 months, there were more than 10 turnover (in a 60-ppl company) and a large portion of them was either senior leadership or founding employees. 2 women (with industry experience of course) in the leadership team were ousted just because they disagree with the company strategy. They don't care about the impact of attrition and are doing nothing to retain talent and improve morale. You either agree with the management or you are out. So, the other review that said the company cares about employee was delusional. Giving you swags =/= care about employees. 3. Minimal to none career development: Promotions happen occasionally in the R&D team, but rarely in the business team, which kind of speaks to the reasons behind the poor culture and morale there. Looking at the strategy of the company, the company clearly doesn't care about the career development of some employees.
