Pros

not much to mention honestly. They have really big egos, and I am left wondering how that was earned? The product works, maybe? it's hard to tell. Company spent close to 10 - 12k For me to move to Montreal and get a better job at a better company.

Cons

Everything is 'baked right into the offer' (crust). 2 years of bad inflation, baked right into the crust. No stock offers baked right into the crust. cliquey management, you guessed it crust. 2 faced everything. Leaders will say on nice LinkedIn posts how they are a team player and like a level playing field. In reality Leaders at Behavox love to think due to title they can act a certain way, like a total jerk. They also absolutely can because of the precedent the CEO sets. Csuite positions are based on being at the company from onset, not based on merit. Also members of the csuite are dating each other, and do cute things like threaten to break up with one another for promotions.

Pros

- Work from home - Hire great talent who are gone within a year - CEO is brilliant at selling "snake oil"! - Long hours and weekends

Cons

Employee Reviews: LOOK CLOSELY at the review dates of the recent 5-Star ratings, ~20% were added between May and August 2021. The leadership team has put pressure on their teams to add positive reviews to offset actual reviews with low ratings. Now you will see replies from Behavox in an effort to rebut reviews that are factual, but unfortunately don’t shed the best light on the company or the management team. COMPANY will highlight the number of new employees, but does not reveal the turnover. Company is not really growing. Burning cash and high-turnover of top talent. Leadership: CEO is brilliant at selling "snake oil"! He has quite literally used this term on worldwide internal company meetings. Customers are left wondering if they will receive the functionality they were promised - such as new language releases, that were promised at the time of sale. Almost every company offers stock! The CEO does not want to share the ownership of the company - he has a long story about why not and that it doesn’t matter… if it doesn’t matter, why not offer stock to everyone? Work life balance: If you are outside the US, be prepared to attend mandatory company meetings weekly that will be in the middle of the night. Also, be prepared to work weekends. Behavox is feeling the pressure of the pandemic, slow growth, customer churn, and competitive pricing. Most of the new leadership has left, including the head of HR, key engineers, most of the marketing team and developers. + Base Pay and Bonus: Not competitive. + Stock: CEO has everyone convinced that stock is not important unless you IPO, which is his goal. He holds most of the stock +Schedule: Long hours. If you are not in North America, expect to work at night + Monitoring: Behavox monitors its employees + Leadership Experience: CEO loves to talk about his days running a hedge fund - he did work for a HF, but he wasn’t in charge of it!

Pros

- Great direct manager + team

Cons

- CEO is incredibly controlling and micro-manages everything, doesn't listen to or consider anyone's opinions

We appreciate all reviews and comments (both the positive and the negative) and we know that our highly committed work culture isn’t for everyone, but we are a company with a very direct and inspired leader that is pushing at the limits of what both technology, and people, can do...and we actively embrace that.
