Tornado of a workplace... Look elsewhere
Pros
- Solid Benefits - Only 2 Days in office per week (for now) - Generous PTO - Flexible hours due to regular collaboration with the COE teams in India
Cons
I had a mixed experience at MiQ, with some talented colleagues and solid learning opportunities, but overall it was frustrating. During my time there, much of my team turned over, creating constant disruption and uncertainty. One of the biggest challenges was the frequent shifting of priorities, with projects and initiatives often changing direction, making it difficult to feel that work was being executed consistently. There were also regular requests from leadership that felt misaligned with core responsibilities, contributing to a sense of wasted time and effort and overall inconsistency week to week. From an organizational perspective, decision-making seemed highly centralized, which sometimes slowed progress and limited autonomy for managers and teams. Exec Leadership frequently spoke about the company's positive culture and employee experience, but that messaging often felt disconnected from broader employee sentiment. Career growth and promotion processes were another concern, with an informal expectation that employees spend at least two years in role before being considered for promotion, and advancement often feeling tied as much to internal politics and visibility as to performance and impact. These types of promotion discussions were disappointing, with positive performance feedback not translating into clear or timely explanations regarding advancement decisions.
