Pros

Pay and benefits are good for this size company The problems the partners are solving are mostly meaningful Skilled teammates Was an incredible culture, there are still strong pockets, but it is fading The Founder, Mike Potter, is incredible at leading but isn’t involved in the company anymore.

Cons

The change in leadership has created a slow trickle of toxicity from the top No longer feeling like a physiologically safe environment, but generally sr management is good A revolving door of executives is concerning Recent layoffs due to lack of focus on generating new business Women leadership replaced by men often

Pros

Pay was generous and fringe benefits were great. Remote work, no ridiculous hybrid schedules. Intelligent, caring colleagues. Used to have a great culture.

Cons

Could see the downward trajectory coming a mile away. From a business standpoint, there was a lack of legit new business pipeline that was apparent in 2023. From a culture standpoint, it appeared to unravel rapidly in 2023. Heavy bro culture, misogyny is rather insidious. This reflects Andy’s “leadership” which also explains the culture eroding. Chasing VC firms was a poor growth strategy. It has and will continue to have a negative effect on the company. The lack of accountability for this strategy speaks volumes. With Mike not involved, the company is like the Titanic. Mike is a true leader whereas Andy is not. Andy will end up running the company into the ground.
