Pros
Some people were great to work with. Met some of the kindest and humble people here.
Cons
Kargo is the prime example of a startup kind of company that didn’t scale properly. They spent too much money, hired too many unqualified people and realized it too late. There is huge amount of office politics and favoritism being played at Kargo, especially in Engineering. Leadership has no idea what it’s doing and no one holds them accountable for what they do. They’re also pretty much clueless on how to help their employees grow and learn. HR is the worst I’ve ever seen in a company. They’re more of a secret police than people who keep the peace. People have to think twice about having NORMAL conversations because they know HR is watching their every move. Honestly the new addition of this HR team is one of the reasons Kargo’s culture went down the drain. Speaking of drains... I hear it’s been like four months and they still don’t have a functional bathroom for their new office. I doubt it’ll be finished even next year. Kargo is the kind of company where after you leave and join a better company you’re like “Wow that was really some traumatic stuff I went through”. People are leaving left and right and realizing the grass really is greener on the other side.
