Array (NY) reviews

- They make you sign off on the toxicity upfront. Array requires you to acknowledge a "How We Work" document during the interview process that explicitly describes the toxic conditions: micromanagement, constant pivots, excessive hours, "low trust environment," "the company comes first, not the individual - you are an energy giver." Then when you're burned out or push back, they use your signature against you: "You agreed to this." It's not transparency, it's a liability shield for exploitation. - They alter performance reviews to deny raises. I personally had my positive review changed by management (or HR) to justify denying a promotion and raise. This is documented bad faith, and it matters because the pay is already below-market for what they demand. They justify low compensation with "exponential growth opportunities" that never materialize, then manipulate the system to keep you underpaid. - Zero leadership or direction. No long-term vision. Priorities change weekly. You'll firefight constantly while maintaining massive technical debt that prevents any real product expansion or innovation. Management changes constantly. You learn nothing marketable and build nothing meaningful. - Technical debt and turnover are killing growth. The technical debt is massive and actively blocks product expansion. But it's made worse by constant turnover - people burn out and leave, taking institutional knowledge with them. The lack of continuity means the same problems get "solved" repeatedly, documentation is outdated or missing, and nobody understands why systems work the way they do. You can't build anything sustainable when you're constantly rebuilding the team. The company is paying for its toxic culture in lost productivity and stalled growth, but management refuses to connect the dots. - Upper management and HR don't care. They're “yes-men” who rubber-stamp decisions from above and show zero genuine concern for employees. Trust flows one direction only - you must prove yourself constantly while they operate in bad faith.

The company tried hiring a private driver for our CEO earlier this year. It was on our website for about a week until they took it down. They posted it while we get paid below market rate and have never had an offsite. Until now…. We have our first offsite this year after being in business for over five years. Vegas? Miami? NYC? No. Memphis. Ugh. NO ONE wants to go to but a lot of people feel pressure because there is so much talk about it. Nashville would have been cool, but why make your employees happy?
