FuseMail LLC. Reviews

I was working for Burnaby Canada office. I was there just for 4 month before I quit. In that short time 5 people left including my manager and my project leader who were interviewing me. After I left another three people left including newly hired manager. Before they hire you they do very lengthy background check (mine took 3 weeks to complete), the only references they accept are your former managers. They treat developers like factory line workers, hire and fire management style. They already have lost too many skilled developers. It's dying company. I would not recommend that company to anyone, stay away from them or else you are gonna find out what's wrong with them but that may hurt.

Punchclock applies to salaried workers. Telecommuting is prohibited. No overtime pay, but overtime work is expected. Salaries are well below market rates. Raises are small and rare. Bonuses erratic. Internal career track nonexistent. Vacations recently clawed back. Sabbatical or leave-of-absence nonexistent. Corporate policy prohibits managers from providing references for employees, current or departed. When people leave, company consistently fails to pay outstanding vacation amount owed. No effort expended to retain talent. Leadership is apparently unfamiliar with products. No product plan or strategy conveyed to staff. Fragmented product line, most of which is in disrepair and/or out-of-date. Instead of addressing real service problems, they change the slogans and website colors. Recently dropped established, respected brand (ElectricMail) and replaced it with acquired brand (FuseMail), resulting in customer confusion and repudiation. There used to be a Foosball table, but the CEO at j2 (the parent company) doesn't consider Foosball an acceptable office activity.
