Pros

This company has a lot of potential and could be doing really well with a different management team.

Cons

For many months this company has been run by the Chief Growth Officer with a new CEO coming on board in May. The Chief Growth Officer has failed in leading the company and needs to be removed. Even though there are customers, the company can't get products out the door. None of the staff understand what their jobs are and instead are fighting with one another over who is in charge of what (and who gets to keep their jobs.) Decisions are made by favoritism or by the most aggressive and manipulative people shutting out everyone else. The Chief Growth Officer is uncomfortable working in groups with more than 2-3 people and makes decisions in isolation. Many of these decisions hurt the company and later have to be reversed. There is no coordination across the company and it is in complete chaos.

Pros

- From years of trauma-bonding I’ve made friends I will have for a lifetime

Cons

- After years of hiring hardworking, brilliant people that were driven by the mission, leadership pivoted completely and yet still expected people to give up their lives to work for an organization that had no direction let alone a focus on making the world better - The pay is so low, especially from how many hours they demand of you, it’s laughable - Management plays favorites - In 2020 there was a big layoff (much like other companies), with those that were left forced into “temporary” pay cuts. Months later, without a word on when salaries would be restored to what they should be, when asked, leadership stated in no uncertain terms that those of us that were left should be grateful we even had jobs. Many of us had to get second jobs/side hustles to cover the gap in pay while still grinding out 70+ hour weeks - Leadership called the company a family as a way to justify employees needing to work around the clock and making their jobs their lives. Yet when abrupt and unfair layoffs with barely, if any, severance, they would pivot and say “this is not a family, this is a business.”
