Pros

Hybrid work, good brand name and product & not a ton of micromanagement

Cons

I could write a paragraph or 6, but this organization feels like summer camp. Unqualified employees and front line management, picking favorites, no clear path to promotion unless your an referral or a friend of someone high up. insane amount of politics all while no actual leadership implements any changes which causes a toxic and extremely disconnected sales org. For months it has felt like no one really cares and everyone collects a check, empty promises and little to no path to promotion and honestly well under compensated to market. Feels like a sinking ship that no one cares to fix and senior leadership is extremely disconnected from day - to - day ops. The company pitches “remote first” but requires to be in office two days a week (total frat house & waste of time) Sad, this place use to be culture first now it seems as though it had totally lost its way and is toying with people’s careers and compensation by being clueless and frankly careless.

Pros

Remote work culture Is excellent, innovative tech, company's growth and opportunities to protect clients. Felt fortunate to have worked for this organization that has a strong growth tragectoruy and protects clients.

Cons

Manager/Director level: Poor communication from team manager/director, with little to no direction and the lack of team morale. Team members were on their own after training and most meetings could've been an email. The presence of the director was the equivalent of a virtual bulletin board. No ownership was taken from management to lead or guide the team and no sense of loyalty exists between management and team members. Good talent was squandered due to complacency and lack of direction. Company: Con for the company is the unfortunate lay offs that happened after leaving the company. It's a shame they laid off veterans from my former team. The writing on the wall was apparent, from outsourced new hires to the non-competitive compensation for newer hires. The company went from a fun and competitive start up to a disconnected company trying to emulate tech industry trends and "balances the budget" AKA lay offs, to look good to share holders. For a company that nets huge profits year after year, layoffs shouldn't be part of the reality.
