Pros
CTO had a good vision and the technology could be great. The market is hot for CTI/comms right now
Cons
This company has no leadership and doesn't deliver on commitments to employees. If you are interviewing here, beware. It may be fast for you to get a job here, but you are likely making a poor choice in a city (SF/NYC) where there are many exciting & viable opportunities that may serve you better in both the short and long terms. This company is based in the UK and is led by a very junior team of execs who wouldn't hack it for a day at a respectable tech company in either the Silicon Valley or NYC. The CEO is a nice guy, but he isn't much of a leader and it's caused a great deal of pain to an entire company of people who could help the company succeed in a significant way. In reference to the review's title- outside of being a generally poor employer- in particular, this is NOT a company for women. There are zero female execs and a very, very small percentage of women in any type of well sponsored leadership role. If you are a woman here, there is a reasonable possibility that you will be harassed or disadvantaged/discriminated against. You probably won't be aware of it immediately because it's that ingrained in the company culture, which is the worst part. Unfortunately, there is an air of an old British & NYC men's club that seems to support and perpetuate a bit of a Mad Men-esq culture. Not good...particularly when the company doesn't have a well structured HR program to support a safe and productive environment for employee success. Overall- the risk is too high. Ability to execute is shockingly poor. It's a 'startup' that has the politics and momentum of the federal government. And, there doesn't appear to be a plan to change/revive the organization, which is what NVM really needs.
