Pros

Team is really friendly and they offered a Good package. The pay was what you would expect from a company in this stage . Interesting technical problem.

Cons

The CEO seems to have found a way to delete all of the negative reviews on glassdoor and there were a lot, so many. It was not good from the beginning. I had to reach out to former employees to figure out what was going on. CEO is immature and was harassing a female ceo who was a competitor, and had to apologize publicly on Linkedin which was embarrassing. This was recently. He has not changed despite promises to. Ask about the turnover rate. And ask if they had employees write positive reviews here. I think the ceo wrote a lot of them because so many of the "perfect 5 star" reviews have smiley faces in them and sound like it was written by GPT. Ask about how many people left because they were fed up lol. Dont trust this page, it is a weird company. Cant believe they took down all the honest reviews.

Skio Response

Hi, I thought it was important to respond directly here given what was written. I first want to address comments about the review removal. All reviews including negative ones that have been written are present. As mentioned in the responses to them, I take feedback seriously and am trying my best to turn Skio into a place people love working at. Regarding positive reviews, all of them (minus the one I’m allowed to write) were written by employees. Now for the accusation made with “harassing a female ceo who was a competitor.” There’s an insinuation here that I need to address. Earlier this year, there was a post on LinkedIn made by a competitor of ours complaining about our cold outbound sales. In response to this, we audited and changed the way we do outreach. On that same thread, something that happened a year prior was brought up, and yes, I apologized publicly because I didn’t handle the situation maturely. While my response was immature, it in no way involved any kind of harassment. I don’t really want to go into exact details of the situation because I wish this competitor the best and want to move on, but if someone doing due diligence sees this and wants more context, I’d be more than willing to discuss what I did and what I would’ve done differently in hindsight. I don’t think you work here (are you from a competitor?), but if you do, I invite you to speak with me directly. If we can’t work through your concerns, I would be ready to provide you with a generous severance package so you can find somewhere else you’re happier to work. Thank you, -Kennan
