Pros
A good product, and some good and smart people within the company, but apart from that, it’s hard to note anything else.
Cons
Awful management, and I mean really awful. I’ve worked at multiple companies throughout my career, and finding a company whose management team is well regarded by all employees is impossible. However, Famly’s management team really are something that shouldn’t be mirrored at other companies. I could produce an infinite list, but the lack of transparency, the two faced approached to communicating with co-workers, or the big brother approach I.e lack of trust in less senior colleagues are just some of the things I’d note make the place a really toxic environment. What’s more, there’s the constant narrative of management valuing feedback, but then being incredibly hostile when feedback is indeed given, to extent where there have been some team members let go, not because of performance issues, but due to sticking their head above the parapet and challenging management’s decisions too often.
