Pros
They just got a nice, new office and there are lots of snacks. Some of the employees are really smart and hardworking. Now that they've centralized operations, they may be more effective, though who knows. The new CEO seems to be smart, though it did suck to lose my job because of him.
Cons
I was one of the 75 employees laid off in December, though I was desperately looking for another job when it happened. I'm sure there is an element of sour grapes to my review, but I will try to be as truthful as possible. During my time at Shiftgig, I worked with some of the most inexperienced and unprofessional people I've ever encountered. I get that it's a startup so they couldn't afford to pay much, but given its potential, they should have been more discerning in their hiring practices. I'd like to preface this by saying that most of the people I'm describing here are really, really good human beings. I have no personal animus toward them, but as coworkers, they were a drain and an obstacle. The people I worked with sometimes dressed really inappropriately, said immature and inappropriate things, were so cynical and jaded that they were a pain to work with, had little in the way of good ideas, or a combination thereof. The irony is that almost every single one of these folks was allowed to keep their jobs. Some even got promoted. I assume it's because they are inexpensive and pliable. When the new CEO came in, he mentioned how important top talent is, even if it costs more, so I expected the layoffs to include at least some of these employees. Instead, many, many of them got to stay. The executive team leaves a lot to be desired. Very little leadership or guidance, even less accountability (unless it directly relates to profit). I would say more, but it would be too specific for Glassdoor's guidelines.
