Pros

Flexible working hours, so great if you have a family Some of the people who work for the company are genuinely good people

Cons

-Good people are treated like crap -Company is very secretive about internal changes within the organization, despite the CEO's feigned transparency with blog posts that usually start with "Not an impressive X" or "not a good start to X." -Turnover rate is huge (across offices) -Raises are menial, and borderline insulting to people who have been with the company for YEARS -Timelines mean NOTHING. No product ever launched on time during my time with the company. -Market feedback is never taken into account (Norway's branding, which doesn't translate well to other markets, rules despite negative feedback/performance) -Communication is nonexistent, with sometimes emails going unanswered for days -People in senior positions should, for the most part, not be in those positions; other workers are there just because they have been there a long time, not because they add value -Senior execs hire managers without ever consulting the people they are working with/managing -Wasted time in pointless meetings -No growth ability -Forced to pay freelancers for competencies that senior managers should have/be trained in -Work with mediocre 3rd party partners/agencies -Would rather put a bandaid on something than actually fix the problem

Pros

Great product, customers really like us. Main offices in a nice space in Stamford, hybrid work. Learning a lot and exposure to lots of parts of the business. Many new people are joining, good energy. Get to work with people in Europe and the North America.

Cons

Growing pains, need to work on communication. No HR in the offices so need to work with global teams. Management puts pressure to grow fast.
