Pros

Great onboarding, was reached out to by the recruiter and the open position they were trying to fill was perfect for my skill set. Wonderful interview process, the team was very friendly and welcoming. I was really looking forward to a wonderful start, plus the Glassdoor reviews were great.

Cons

Too many red flags once I started. Details were held back as if they were prized possessions, I was not allowed to use or learn certain programs, and I would go back and forth with my manager 20 times over email to get a simple detail from them. I was moved to another group 7 months in to "mentor", not manage, the young marketing team in EU and the US. Assumptions and gossip were another issue I had to contend with. Things would come back to me that were not true, completely made up about me that I believe found their way to senior management when the RIF occurred. Also, the company was not bringing in the numbers quarter over quarter, and I had a feeling that I would be getting laid off when I was tasked with completing a multitude of projects and asked to deliver a presentation to the team on 2024 plans by November 7. I completed the projects, delivered the presentation, and was laid off on November 8. There has now been a mass layoff of most US employees and I see that the only openings available are now in the EU, India or GB.

Pros

Great place to work with a strong sense of purpose and product. The culture is professional and collaborative, with an emphasis on respect, accountability, and delivering value for customers. You’re given responsibility and trusted to take ownership, and there is room to grow if you are proactive.

Cons

As with any growing company there is a lot to do and processes are evolving which can require patience.

Pros

Syncron is a place where you get to work with knowledgeable and supportive colleagues, which was the highlight of my time there. The company operates in a specialised SaaS niche and works with enterprise clients, offering some exposure to international processes. That said, the wider outlook has been uncertain, with frequent leadership changes and occasional redundancies, which can affect long-term stability.

Cons

Promotion opportunities are limited despite increasing workloads. The company has undergone periodic "organisational changes" over the last couple years and has replaced much of the C-suite, sometimes more than once. Communication across teams can be inconsistent, and the company’s outlook varies by region. Employees are sometimes asked to complete tasks outside the scope of the manager’s expertise; while these tasks are completed, the outputs are not always incorporated into broader processes. The culture and strategic direction can feel unclear, and performance reviews are not always conducted consistently.
