Poor leadership

Anonymous employee

Pros

- Robust raw data assets - A few really talented people left in meaningful roles - Decent work-life balance - Good healthcare -Great vacation benefits

Cons

- Leadership is comprised of stale rentrak execs who promote one another into positions they are unqualified for. No fresh thinking. - Huge retention issues dating back several years. Employees are treated as expendable cogs that can be used and replaced. - Lack of focus - leadership unwilling to make tough strategic decisions about the direction of the company. Company continues chasing every possible dollar of revenue and unsuccessfully attempting to compete in too many aspects of the ecosystem. - Women in my department continually given major additional responsibility (in the form of rolling entire full time jobs under them when someone would leave) without promotion or pay increases. - Lack of resources to accomplish anything meaningful, which became exhausting - Sales and client success teams primarily comprised of "C Players" who are unmotivated and push pieces of their core responsibilities onto other departments. (Didn't used to be that way but recent management has allowed this to continue as part of the culture and even encouraged it to some degree) - Overly commercial-led culture where sales team (or whoever yells the loudest) has far too much impact on what gets built when without an understanding of the bigger picture - Abismal 401k benefits...still

Pros

There are still some great people who haven't been laid off or left for greener pastures yet. If you're on team made up of these people, you'll be okay. Work life balance is good if you get a reasonable manager. Line-level engineering managers are pretty consistently nice humans who care about their direct reports (though a ton of them just left the company, so who knows).

Cons

The annual layoff is a real thing. Leadership is always changing direction. Middle to upper management and executive leadership don't value employees or have any interest in retaining talent and institutional knowledge. Compensation, while not the worst, could be better. There's a bitter rivalry between the legacy Comscore and legacy Rentrak portions of the organization. Company is rife with poor performers and incompetent employees. I would even go as far as to say there's a culture that breeds or encourages these characteristics. A combination of engineers/leads/managers leaving and poor/missing documentation results in a difficult situation for onboarding any new employees.
