Pros

- amazing benefits - $1,000 for office supplies to work remote - lots of Friday's off in the summer - flexible schedule

Cons

- sexism, to the point where a manager said "stop acting like a bunch of girls". They say they want to hire more women, but then treat them like crap calling them 'emotional' whenever they speak. - racism - managers belittling you when you express problems - favouritism. The favourites get away with everything and they don't let the others say boo. - told one thing, but then they will do the exact opposite. "we will include you in the hiring process of a new manager", but then they just hire the manager they like and know. - whole department quit within 2 months after new manager brought in. - sales focussed, nothing else matters. set unrealistic goals based on data which has causes. CEO is made aware of these causes such as an increase in revenue in April 2020 due to covid and businesses going online but expecting same results in April 2021. CEO does not acknowledge this. - top down bad management and leadership. Express concerns and aren't addressed. - say that there is growth opportunities, but that time never comes and they hire someone instead for those 'opportunities'

Thank you for your feedback and for your honesty. Please know that we hear you. While we strive every day to do better and be better, we want to share some of our progress and upcoming initiatives to address some of your concerns: Last quarter we established a DEI committee with sponsors across all levels of the organization to review and conduct an audit of internal practices for fairness and improvements We understand how important leadership is in an employee’s journey and have OKRs surrounding manager training and performance management development. We plan to tackle the big subjects of gender, race and fairness during these development experiences as we know they are important and deserve more care At Rewind we have ambitious goals and we’re proud to often meet them with our team. We put infrastructure in place to help our team achieve our goals together. Sometimes this requires us to live our value of ‘being comfortable being uncomfortable’ but we are always eager to listen to our team’s feedback and make changes as we grow We have formally launched a career laddering and competency tool that will help us continue to progress our team so that they can build their career at Rewind and we will be using the competencies throughout our hiring process to remove bias. We love to involve our team during the hiring process but we have and will always hire based on the best candidate for the role While we are proud of our employee engagement scores and the fact that turnover remains less than 2% at Rewind, we constantly strive to improve. Thank you for taking the time to call us out on some areas which you feel deserve attention. Should you be interested, we would be happy to set up a time to speak with you personally to discuss further. In the meantime, we want you to know that your feedback is being acted on and that your voice is heard. Reach out to our VP People amanda.gordon@rewind.io or to our People team at people.ops@rewind.io anytime.

Pros

Nice people and good culture in terms of friendliness and work-life balance.

Cons

The culture suffers a lot when things aren't as rosy. Lots of politics.
