Not a place for technical talent

Pros

Vibrate business outline, print cloud and local production has a good impact.

Cons

The leadership team thinks they know it all, and tech is just for execution. Decisions are top-down, rather made by a bunch of sr. executives who feel that they know it all, and they are right ALL the time as they managed to attract investors. Culture boasts about "battling over ideas with no hierarchy", but trust me, it is like "battle over ideas, but shut your brains and do what I say, as I am always right" CTO doesn't trust the tech teams, doesn't fight for the team, and shames the teams Almost ALL the time when things go wrong.

Hi, Each individual and team member has his or her experience and view on a company and its strengths and weaknesses. We will discuss and seek to understand what we can improve from a tech and leadership perspective. We conduct Pulse Surveys every 3 months. There is nothing that indicates that what you have described is experienced by other team members but that doesn't mean we will not look into this. We would like to be open and transparent about the last Pulse Survey which we performed a month ago and if we look into Tech specifically, this is the one that correlates the strongest to the area you called out: Enablement: “We have enough autonomy to perform our jobs effectively” which scored 89% out of 100. We always seek to avoid characterizing our improvement areas by referring to individuals but we recognize that it is a failure of our leaders and leadership team if a person has felt the way you have and we are sorry for this. We will add your input to the areas that we need to work with and improve upon. Thank you, Best, Gelato People & Talent Team

Pros

1. I love the culture, I have seen transformation in myself after joining the company. 2. I 100% believe in the vision. We are going to change how print industry works. 3. People here focus on the work, are forward looking and among the best I have worked with. I feel empowered.

Cons

Not for those who can't handle adversities or not willing to stand up to challenges. (Actually a Pro not Con)
