Pros

Pros: - Work from home Wednesday for the SF team

Cons

Cons: - You’re selling vaporware - the product doesn’t work as advertised - Management doesn’t care about you as a person, no professional development, no benefits, healthcare is poor, etc. They see you as a number on a spreadsheet - Management will promise you everything and tell you what you want to hear in order to hit a goal but will follow through maybe 20% of the time - They’ll make up and shift numbers around to hit goal at the end of the month (not honest) - Very sales-bro culture in SF - Inexperienced management in Poland, double whammy - Crowded space with no real differentiation - Interviewers lie to get people onboard

Pros

Prior to closing the San Francisco office, the pros of working at Growbots were a strong US presence and culture. The entire US team truly enjoyed working with one another and growing together as a team.

Cons

Upper management is a huge con. Unfortunately, we had to watch the company single handily be run into the ground by our Executives. Our Executive team were unwilling to be transparent in regards to the company health, status & changes that were to come. By wanting to stay a privately held company, they rejected multiple offers to guide Growbots to the next level. The company does not have a future unless they change their vision on what they define 'successful'

We really appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts and feedback. Our goal as a company is to improve with every chance we get and we will take into consideration every word we hear. However, we want to ensure you that we always tried to be as transparent as possible about the company status. We also put a lot of trust in our people - and this is something that you probably experienced yourself. We wish you all the best with your future projects.

Pros

- technology stack - office in the city center

Cons

- treating people as things - egocentric and "almighty" COO, - CEO is only a puppet, - not respecting its own values - optimizing teams and individuals for numbers instead of showing the big picture - constantly lying to its customers, overselling, promising things they are not planning to deliver - tricked at least two employees, only to save money in the short-term
