Pros

Talented and hardworking people across multiple teams Competitive pay in certain parts of the business

Cons

The leadership team appears increasingly disconnected from the reality of what is happening within the business. Letting go of a newly hired “People & Culture Lead” after just over two months, while citing a lack of “cultural fit,” raises serious concerns about the company’s hiring process and leadership judgment. Someone in that role would presumably have been vetted extensively by senior leadership before joining. Unfortunately, this is not an isolated incident. Several employees have left or been let go in recent months, often with little warning, creating a culture of uncertainty and fear across teams. Decisions seem reactive and are communicated poorly, leaving employees anxious about who might be next. Since the introduction of the most recent leadership hires, the company culture has noticeably deteriorated. What was once a collaborative environment now feels increasingly driven by blame, politics, and toxicity. Morale has declined, growth appears to have stalled, and many employees no longer feel psychologically safe or valued.
