Great Start Up Company - Technical Support Rightside Employee Review

always good time at this place

No bad cons to report for this employer

There are some really great individuals to work with. Company tries to incorporate fun into the workday and they are somewhat flexible with work schedules and has some good perks - free snacks, the week off between Christmas & New Years, and lunch is provided on Fridays.

It appears that most decisions are made only considering the short term. Rightside hires on the gimmick that they have fun at work, however while the work environment itself was fun on the surface, it often went past healthy competition and teamwork to one that was rife with backstabbing and resentment. Also, there is little growth potential and rampant nepotism. They hire many higher level positions through contacts externally, and promote those they have personal relationships with. There is a lack of organization, communication & cohesiveness between individual departments which results in key people not being informed of business decisions that impact them timely. As this causes a rippling effect, it does not go unnoticed by other companies, employees and clients.
