Great product, poor management

Pros

-Casual work environment. -High emphasis on culture and having fun together. -Attracts a lot of smart people with good ideas. -The product they sell is well thought out and developed.

Cons

-Their obsession on work culture ends up causing a toxic and co-dependent work environment. -The amount of overtime required with zero compensation (monetary or time in lieu) is completely criminal. -Communication with employees is non existent. -They encourage goal setting/planning and yet do not provide any kind of real support for achieving those goals. -The fact that there is no actual structure when it comes to top level management is to their detriment. Just ends up causing arguments amongst the founders. -Their employee turn over rate is astounding. -Employee compensation is wildly disparate and undervalue many. -They seem to think they are above their clients. -The founders attitudes and maturity level is akin to high school -Inter-office communication is extraordinarily racist, sexist and insulting that they actually have to wipe the chat history every day

Pros

The product is liked by customers. If you can work remote you'll be spared a lot of the office problems.

Cons

Highly politicized organization - lots of negativity 24/7 The company has no CEO - the 4 owners are constantly fighting among each other and trying to gather support from the rest of the people. They're calling each other names and it's very divided. There are no people with successful management experience, but there are some team members that are really great employees. Unfortunately last year most of them left.

Pros

You take ownership to projects assigned to you. Close knit Development Team, each individual is highly skilled in what they do. Tech stack is always being updated to whatever is trending. Amazing work environment, office is beautiful.

Cons

Very fast paced work environment, and deadline driven. If you can't keep up, this is not the place for you. Especially with how fast the company is growing.
