Pros

Coworkers are good people for the most part. Ping pong table.

Cons

give the facade they are decent, but they are not. Awful company! -They have no idea what they're doing and have no vision. They'll do things even against advisement. CEO is an erratic liar. -Poor management, only room for advancement is being a part of the inner frat circle..hard work isn't appreciated. Yes men are lifted above people with realistic and true criticisms of the company. This company is a joke point blank, don't believe these fake reviews. -Poor communication and constant lies, can't believe what anyone says. -Other reviews claim we would move at the beginning of 2018 and yet NOTHING has changed!! Upper mgmt has made this claim since I've worked here and from what I've heard, they've promised to move offices on more than one occasion but something always comes up to prevent it from happening..they're too cheap to move to make the commute easier on the employees. But when the CEO lives minutes from the office, why would he want to move? The location/commute on the LIRR is atrocious.

When Broker Genius was a young company with no online presence, we did encourage employees to leave us honest anonymous reviews and at no point did we ask that they be positive. We also currently mandate that all open positions where internal promotions are possible be opened up to a formal application process for all qualified employees. We take feedback in all forms extremely seriously and continuously work everyday to improve employee satisfaction. Although this job did not appear to have been a good fit we sincerely wish you the best of luck in the next step of your journey.

Pros

People in Barcelona office are working together in a way to maximize the learning and work delivered balance. They allow you to learn through the process of delivering and have a clear mindset of what a development process is.

Cons

C-level management does not know how to run a business. They think they can hire/fire people as nothing would happen. I was hired as a Software Engineer and after 3.5 months I was made redundant along with 8 other peers because the numbers were not matching their expectations, which was a surprise to me because the feedback I got from my manager was very positive just one week before that day. Curiously enough, I've seen they are hiring again (just 2 months after they sacked most of the office) so if you are thinking about applying there just think twice if you want to join a very immature company.

Pros

2 Stars cause the people in the pricing department all seem super friendly and I enjoy some of the conversations we all get into.

Cons

1. Constant lying the first lie I heard was we were moving a few months after I got I hired and now that isn't the case and seemed like it never was. 2. The CEO should not be the CEO he doesn't have any clue what goes on in the department and flys off the handle saying stuff only to be told by our direct managers to not listen to him. 3. Don't expect to have any life at all during the week or weekends because you will be forced to work long hours 9-7pm is the standard and most days it is longer than that with commute expect to put in 60+ hour weeks for less than $50,000 oh and there is no working from home. 4. There is a complete disconnect from sales to pricing it feels like the sales team tells them we can give them the world and then when we don't we have to deal with it while the sales team just goes on their merry way.

Broker Genius believes strongly in the power of constructive criticism, which is why we encourage employees to give anonymous feedback through many outlets, including Glassdoor reviews, internal surveys and via the office suggestion box. That being said, we're surprised to hear the recounting of your experience here thus far because it's in stark contrast with feedback we generally receive. We appreciate your feedback and will continue looking into ways to improve communication and work/life balance at Broker Genius. In addition, we are happy to discuss any problems or issues you have been experiencing. If you continue to feel dissatisfied working at Broker Genius, we are willing to help you explore new opportunities elsewhere and even provide financial assistance during a transition period as we firmly believe every employee has a right to work in an environment where they are fulfilled personally and professionally. If you'd like to discuss these options or share more about your experience, please email hr@brokergenius.com to schedule a private meeting.
