disastrous leadership and integrity issues

Pros

There are some really good people trying hard here

Cons

Leadership is a disaster. There are unrealistic asks of the team and then when it can't be done the front line team is criticized meanwhile no one is worried about failure to meet contractual customer commitments. I wasn't going to say anything about this company until I noticed all the 5 star reviews. They are bogus, at least most of them. I was personally asked to submit a 5 star review by leadership to help with "image" and be a "team player", just before my entire group was let go. start ups are fast-paced and can change on a dime, but beyond that, there is an integrity and honesty issue in the C suite. I wouldn't want someone to start working here and not know the truth, it is a dead end road and it will be unpleasant along the ride.

Great hires but high turnover and poor leadership

Pros

Coworkers were always great but they don’t last long. So I can say they make great hires.

Cons

This place has been hiring and firing women to the extent that I truly think they actively dislike the sound of a woman’s voice in the room. There’s maybe 1 or 2 left. The COO is a meathead who says a lot of nonsense and expects it to be received as gospel. The turnover has always been high and layoffs are annual at this point. Five star reviews were just leadership trying to increase the rating. It’s disorganized, disjointed, and falling behind. It’s like they’ll do anything except actually improve the product.

Pros

Talented and extremely hard working co workers, genuinely cool customers.

Cons

Where to start. The last event that happened was a sizeable layoff, including the entire CS team. All of the 5 star reviews in the last few months were either pressure tactics from management or completely fraudulent. No product updates have been made in a year, we’ve openly scammed and deceived. Sales team all got fired or left too. Prior reviews were all 1-2 stars and that’s an accurate reflection. multiple of the laid off people had been here for only months, or less, and were promised the moon (whoops!) Do NOT join.
