Pros

Been here for some time and in the early days the compensation was great, but I doubt that's the case now. They offer a lot of the start up perks you'll find in Silicon Valley. The theory behind the solution is impressive and brought in equally impressive people on the ground floor so you'll meet some excellent people. This is one of those high risk high reward situations. If everything aligns here, this place will be the next big thing.

Cons

The organization has no identity. Every quarter it seems to change and with that change it just results in more layoffs. There has been a large number of layoffs here and that isn't something new for company. With a new strategy they bring in some amazing people to help move things along but if things don't immediately work out they redirect and layoff those they just hired. It's hard to respect a leadership team when they do that.

Pros

Pay wasn't half bad and some times the lunches were decent

Cons

Lets be clear, Elementum is NOT a start up Per Nader's own words, Elementum has been around for awhile but never amounted to much. Almost the entire work force was laid off after years of supporting a garbage product. Then they attempted to re-invent themselves as a "supply chain" product. Within the yearish I was there it went from supply chain to a Service Now knock off and finally to piggy backing off of Snowflake to make themselves look like they are a legit data analytics company. And now "AI Driven Workflow"? These are just catchy words and phrases. It means nothing. Their product is garbage. Countless times you hear about big issues from big name customers and the "fix" was band aid on an gun shot wound. We were all told to log into the app store and give the app a 5 star rating, but it was just plain bad. The app is a glorified ticketing system. Add to it the relentless turn over. It seemed like once a week someone was fired and there was NEVER any plan in place to replace them. Within 1 month the main guy for software development was canned and then the director of engineering was gone, out of the blue, no warning. I ran all of the IT and was kept in the dark about most everything, including off boards. I was finally term'd after I turned down wanting to take on more work and roles without any additional pay in the engineering department. I am not an engineer and I did not want to be one, so I was let go. Fun story, Nader had the habit of just randomly showing up with new computers and I would literally be the last to know. There was a situation with a computer that we could not account for. This led to me having my final payouts being delayed for just about a month with absolutely no word from anyone from the company. I had to hound the HR rep almost weekly.
