Pros

Nucleus affords its team members lots of autonomy to deliver work as you see fit. As long as your intentions are good and you're working hard, you will retain this autonomy and earn the respect of your colleagues. The founders and team are made up of friendly, caring people who are very driven and supportive. In our culture, we have a no a-holes policy that has held strong over time. Most of us also have a good sense of humor. The founders are sincere in their desire to solve real problems for our customers and build the best product, business, and culture possible. The benefits are also very generous! As long as "your house is in order", you can take time off as you wish.

Cons

Nucleus is a startup environment so you need to be self-motivated and self-regulated. You need to be able to plan and act without a lot of direction or oversight. We are also a predominately remote workplace so you need to be an excellent communicator and a team player. Trust is very important, and if you can't maintain it with your colleagues, you will not last long.

Pros

Product is decent, there is not enough investment in the Product team. They are overworked. Results in customers being unhappy A LOT! Customers leave often.

Cons

Terrible management on some teams. The COO of Customer Success does not manage his CSM Manager, and lets him get away with everything. The CSM Manager is a terrible leader, SUPER micromanager, promotes a lack of trust within the team. He overpowers his team, even on customer calls, which makes CSMs look like they don’t know anything in front of customers. This guys (CSM Manager) ego is ridiculous! This causes a very NEGATIVE wave across the company. People that are stressed out go behind your back and tell on you about random things that are untrue, instead of speaking to you to improve as a team, 1:1. Managers believe all negative things and don’t believe your side of the story. HR is terrible, unprofessional at the highest level! I saw the Head of People (HR) throw a fit at a team event, because she was stressed out. I have seen multiple people that were terminated for random, made up stories and HR simply says, “We can fire you for anything.” Terrible, because the product is decent, but some of the Managers destroy that idea!!!!
