Cetrez Reviews

managers seemed redundant/incapable and disorganized There seemed to be a pattern of hiring out of sympathy rather than competence. judgemental vibes. The type of company who would urge employees to leave positive reviews here after reading this one; pointing to a disproportionate reaction to perception-management instead of actually fixing anything of substance.

After a couple of years since working here, I thought I'd share a sober retrospective account of my experience as a UX Lead. POs and managers get burnt out because of the consistently weak communication from management. The CEO cannot clearly share their vision which means a bunch of middlemen and other employees have different interpretations of whatever lecture or story leadership have conjured up. The team are young. They can be easily manipulated by the couple who run the company with a "if you're not with us, you're against us" maxim. Trinkets are dangled to encourage desired behaviour (see " we'll respect your boundaries if they match what we want to get away with") and if you are shunned from the herd, life can be very tough. There is very little intellectual empathy from the supposed geniuses who run the joint. The CTO is a bully who likes to justify his behaviour with his "good intentions" and loves a good soap-box session, and plenty of the in-crowd are just there to make the CEO and his partner feel good about themselves. It's a very standard small company.
