Pros

- Good product

Cons

Poor management . Management is a joke at this company. Managers bully employees and are involved in a lot of politics (especially in the Australian office) . Favouritism is key to success here. The director does not reward on skill set but bases his decisions on favouritism.

Pros

The brand is amazing and you can see remnants of fun that used to make this place unique like the beer fridge and minimal hierarchy. They have decent time off when shutdowns are included.

Cons

The current CEO waffles between crying in town halls to screaming at teams in morning stand up meetings then sending emails about how various people and teams are the best she has ever worked with. You never know which mood you will get. Sales goals are not achievable and layoffs are frequent. Long-time employees avoid promotion because they want to survive so they have to keep bringing in outside management and then they either fire them or they leave often in under a year.
