Pros

Flexible hours as long as your work gets done. CTO is an amazing person to work with, however if you don't work with him or on the Design team it is an unnecessarily stressful environment.

Cons

There is severe disconnect between sales and those that deliver the product to the customer. Sales doesn't come from high tech, is inexperienced with technology, and thus often sets crazy deadlines that push everyone to work crazy hours. The CEO will argue circles around you and is never wrong, so don't bother. Great talker, terrible listener. This makes it difficult to share ideas and grow as a company. Regular explosions of rage from a certain top manager both in the office and on vid calls. It has been witnessed by all, and his tantrums are tolerated/ignored as there is a close relationship between he and the CEO. I see others have reviewed to the same effect. Information is used like a weapon at Kelvin and there is a severe lack of transparency about client dealings or financials. They struggle to establish process as they lack in management skills.

Pros

Provided healthcare plans are competitive

Cons

The previous review has inspired me to write one as well. Let me highlight a few points so you don’t set your career back working here. It is generally accepted within the tech industry that you receive all your shares if you are let go without cause (effectively a cliff vest). Here, however, in your employment contract will be a clause which states that you do not receive any shares unless you are with the company for minimum one year (again, if you are let go without cause that is not up to you!). That means, at any point, the company can claim “restructuring” where you are the only person affected. Even if you are 11 months and 29 days in, you will not receive any of your shares. I will also point out that the meetings here are extremely toxic, just folks hurling manure at each other for an hour; attrition understandably is remarkably high. Finally, the ceo is extremely vindictive and quite hands-on.
