Pros

- some flexibility - Some nice people

Cons

- Inauthentic bizarre culture - Very high staff turnover - either people getting kicked out or simply realising they deserve better. People were treated as disposable. - The company is constantly looking to cost-cut, including cutting staff all the time and doing anything they can to avoid paying sales commission. - No diversity. The ceo just wants to hire clones of herself. So many amazing people got dropped on the last day of their probation for no good reason - they just didn’t seem to fit the company mould. - Company “happiness” is measured as a KPI, but in a weird 1984- ‘big brother is watching’ way, not in a ‘we genuinely care about our employees’ way. People were scared to put anything that wasn’t a positive response. - Serious micro-management from the top down. - No company money is spent on culture/team building. Lunches, leaving presents etc are all funded by the employees themselves.

Pros

Great snacks and opportunities to eat out

Cons

Long, loooooong hours. Minimal pay. Made to feel like we should be grateful to work for a ‘fun’ company. Fun doesn’t pay the bills.
