Pros

+ Good culture + Amazing team leads + Toronto office is okay + People and culture team are good

Cons

- Bad leadership team - Unclear company direction - Leadership creates an illusion of stability but doesn't mean it - Not a good place to develop technical skills. Most devs feel skill rot here. - Obvious disconnect between leadership and management. Moved all dev work from Romania to Canada and then let go of devs in Canada to focus dev work in Latin America. - Hired contract workers and notified them that they aren't hiring full time employees. Then proceeds to hire a bunch of full time employees. Dodged all questions about the future of the contract workers when brought up in town hall meetings

Pros

- High pace - Genuine management team - Clear goals

Cons

- PE backed, comes with lots of structural change in a short amount of time. Which is to be expected but might not be for everyone. - No more unlimited PTO - Primarily fully remote organization, limited ability to interact in person with team members

Pros

Co- workers and ability to work remote

Cons

Multiple layoffs - management can’t be trusted, they fire you if you sneeze too loud. Zero career growth, they only reward based on favoritism and personal relationships They cannot be doing well financially, we were public, then were acquired by a private company, then they started firing everyone who was good except the leadership team - they are the ones that should be fired. The leadership team is cold and condescending - you cannot trust any of them, especially the CEO. Very sneaky and liars unless you are part of the in crowd. They don’t care.
