More Interested In Theory Than Execution

Sales development representative (sdr)

CEO approval

Pros

I truly believe in the company's value prop and I really enjoyed the free coaching I received as a perk. Overall, the benefits were great.

Cons

They say they wanted feedback, but they never actually implemented any rep's input. It was a shut up and dance culture masquerading as egalitarian. Senior leadership clearly had a lot of vision, but they were more interested in org theory than actual execution. There were droves of beautifully written essays/memos/value statements by the founders, but when it came to actually putting any of their lofty ideals into action it just didn't happen - in fact, usually the exact opposite happened. It was a company run by academics, not legitimate operators.

Not the place it pretends to be!

Project manager

Business Outlook

Pros

The excellent coworkers and the mission are what motivate people to stay. There are also attractive benefit packages if you negotiate them upfront.

Cons

There are so may cons about working here. The leadership is in disarray and continues to mention the potential for additional layoffs. While the company claims to welcome feedback those who give it can never live it down because its all recorded against them. Alexi and Eddie continue to have a revolving door on their leadership teams as no one wants to remain at the company and they're pushed out as soon as they voice their opinions. If an employee becomes too popular and threatens the founders' egos, which is not hard to do, they get exited. Recently a senior sales leader was pushed out of the company because she exited the founders brother who was working on her team and underperforming. Career advancements are nearly impossible to come by and so many great employees are leaving as this place is crumbling.
