Pros

Unlimited PTO, 2pm Friday release, people are nice.

Cons

- Zero strategic plan, pivot from whatever plan they have persistently. Have self admitted to certain employees that after laying off 1/3 of the company, they have no plan past like 12 months. Complete survival mode. - There are better ways to lay people off than mass zoom calls, and before they rebuttal this in the comments - there are ways other than individual meetings and letting people have the axe hanging over their head. Also had no idea WHO should be let go and what those impacts would be. Let go several people they had to call for information or to ask to come back. - Other problem with the above bullet is management PERSISTENTLY told us the exact opposite was the case as they cut off new business for a quarter, hired a ton of people, then fired 1/3 of the company. - Clearly have no idea how budgets or financial projections should work. - will always be held captive to "growth" because its a venture capital run firm. - will nickel and dime your pay, then make it seem like you should be grateful for what you have

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. As we mentioned during the layoff last year, we tried to apply the most compassionate approach to communication for that process. We hope that you’ve been able to attend the many town hall presentations we’ve conducted where we’ve given updates on the progress of our plan, both strategically and financially, as well as our budget process. We believe all of this aligns us well with our growth goals. If you have any questions or would like to discuss further, please speak with your manager, your senior leader or People Operations.

Pros

My position was well compensated

Cons

I did not enjoy or find value in my time at ebbo. I found senior leadership to be off putting at best and besides my direct supervisor no one put any effort into getting to know me as a person.
