Solace Reviews

- Prepare to be underpaid - CEO is working 70-hour weeks (not delegating enough) and because of this, holds unreasonable expectations of his employees to work as much as possible - Excessive emphasis on work - A relatively limited number of days off (compared to most other startups and tech companies) are paraded around like they're being incredibly generous. - Expect those days off to be met with an expectation they you work extra time since Solace is taking those days off (yes this does completely invalidate those days off) - Company culture is non-existent (you're not here to have fun, you're here to get the job done) - Every CEO progress update email that goes out comes with a veil of "work hard or else" - Constant feeling that your job is on the line - Successes are barely celebrated, individual successes even less - Leadership and management consistently fail to inspire - Expect your manager to be disinterested in your career growth and professional development - Teams are siloed both internally and within the broader company - Teams are lean, expect to be overburdened with work - CEO is dead set on only using Notion for everything resulting in it being used at a scale it's not designed for instead of far better suited tools like Jira, Asana, Tablaeu, Looker, etc. - God forbid you have a life outside of Solace and you're screwed if the CEO finds out you work a second job even if it is outside of working hours - No HR (the CEO is our HR) so expect to feel really awkward trying to ask questions
