Pros

There really isn't too much good to say about a company that treats its employees like work horses, is there? If you like to not think and blindly follow a mediocre management team, this is the company for you!

Cons

Working at Colibri or any of its brands comes with many disappointments. However, I would say the biggest one is the horrendous and abhorrent excuse for a department that is supposed to be responsible for company culture. I have never in my life witnessed such blatant lies and disregard for human-beings. Colirbri will send you to a one-day offsite thats poised as getting to know yourself and your true life's mission. The whole thing was actually pretty cool. You get a little talk and you're feeling pretty good. He tells you that if you ever feel like you're in the wrong place, to let him know and they will work with you and figure it out. It is not until a few years after and witnessing many many things unfold, did I realize what an absolute scam the HR department is. As other reviewers have noted, THIS COMPANY WILL FIRE YOU if you are in with in-crowd. They don't help you with your career, grow you, develop your skill set and profession. THEY JUST FIRE YOU. Unless you consider yourself a "yes man" and are fine going with status quo (even if status quo is driven by horrible decisions), you do not want to work here. Unless you blindly follow middle management, even as they make business ruining decisions and make the daily the jobs of their employees extremely difficult, you will get fired!

Pros

Great culture with genuinely great people who are passionate about the mission. difficult but highly rewarding work where you're empowered to solve real problems. Leadership is strengthening and driving the company toward a compelling vision. Tons of opportunity for impact and professional growth.

Cons

The pace is fast and the challenges can be intense - it's not for everyone. You'll need to be comfortable working through ambiguity and pushing through difficult problems without always having a clear roadmap. If you prefer a slower, more predictable routine, this might feel overwhelming at times.

Pros

Coworkers, remote work, some overtime

Cons

The company is constantly evolving, which can make it difficult for employees to feel secure in their roles. One moment you feel confident about your future with the organization, and the next you are concerned about the possibility of layoffs. When AI initiatives were introduced, employees were assured that the technology would not eliminate jobs. However, recent workforce reductions have understandably caused many employees to question those assurances. In my experience, three employees from my department and two from another department were laid off. While change is inevitable in any organization, transparent communication and consistency between messaging and actions are essential to maintaining employee trust and morale.
