Pros
You will get close with your coworkers because you’re in a chaotic foxhole with bombs being thrown at you every week from the founders at their whimsy. You will basically be enrolled in an MBA-level crash course in how NOT to run a business
Cons
Where to start? If having two Glassdoor profiles to cover up how terrible the environment is, how incompetent the founders are, and how they’ll use and abuse you under false pretenses of promised growth and promotion later without any actual reward available, is not a huge red flag to you, here’s some others: - No learning or development - Poor work life balance -Mistreatment of entry level team members - Mistrust among all departments - Poor communication from the top down - Changing priorities so much that nothing innovative ever gets done - Questions about your worth and competence if you don’t agree with founder decisions - A management team that blindly follows the founders, even if that makes it an unsafe environment for their own team - Sexism and unconscious bias, this is not a safe place for women or POC - performative actions when morale gets so low the founders feel like they have to act like they care. None of these listening sessions go anywhere.
