Pros

Sermo has a fantastic PTO plan, work life balance priorites, and over all pretty good salaries and compensation packages. Great company to work for if you value your time and work hard when it comes your way.

Cons

Little to no room to grow career-wise and am stuck doing the same thing I have been doing since I've started. Work will ebb and flow, so finding valuable company use for your free time boils down to if you're personally willing to improve your craft or sit around bored with nothing to do. Sometimes communication from management is lacking concerning company updates, overall check-ins, and direction on current projects.

Pros

I’ve been with Sermo for over a year, and I only have good things to say. The company has an amazing culture that truly values collaboration and growth. I really appreciate how well-organized the processes are, especially around sprints and releases, it makes work efficient and clear. The team works together seamlessly, and management consistently takes the time to check in and help resolve any blockers, which shows they genuinely care about our success. Overall, it’s a fantastic place to work.

Cons

I have no cons to mention.

Pros

Good pay, Fully remote. Get to work with lots of smart people

Cons

Cons come down to disorganization and bad leadership Priorities, including key company KPIs, change constantly. What's important today might be meaningless next month. Lack of focus on the core product. Sermo's main offerings stagnate, while the engineering team is forced to spend time on irrelevant, low-value initiatives Poor leadership. CEO does not accept criticism. Sermo incentivizes kissing up to the CEO whenever possible. The CEO also micromanages areas where he has little expertise, and the product suffers because of it. Short-termism, meaning a lot of broken or duct-taped systems
