Fast Start Up Culture - Anonymous employee Kinvey Employee Review

Great product, great team. Very smart engineering group, with enough autonomy to get the job done.

Enterprise sales are incredibly difficult. They're time consuming and complicated.

- Great people - Good culture - A fair amount of games / fun to be had in the workplace - Transparency (see cons) - Complex product

- Extremely difficult product to sell (what makes it different from our competitors?) - Unclear goals from management - Nepotistic hires - Being held accountable for failures of other teams - Sales not hitting their numbers - Late game pivots to appeal to different market segments - A complete lack of transparency in the year 2016 - Brain drain (senior people leaving the company at an alarming rate) - Management is all a clique, and regardless of team performance nobody is held accountable / let go - Company laid off 20% of staff at the start of Q2, culture is pretty much dead at this point, everyone is scared and nobody is happy
