      Toxic culture / cutting-edge tech

      Forward deployed engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Working on cutting-edge voice AI is genuinely exciting and intellectually rewarding. Customers are demanding, but solving their problems can be satisfying. The company has a strong reputation in the voice AI space and talented engineers on the core product side.

      Cons

      Forward Deployed Engineering is chaotic, with unclear leadership and rampant favoritism — some managers mainly hire friends/old colleagues and treat them differently. Work-life balance is nonexistent (60+ hours is the norm). Pay may look good upfront, but when compared to the stress, workload, and lack of bonuses/benefits, it’s below market. PR reviews are superficial, and decisions often happen behind closed doors. The culture is cult-like: if you’re not fully bought in, you won’t last. Managers are lacking business understanding.

      Thank you for writing this out in the detail you did. Reading it, we are sorry the experience as a Forward Deployed Engineer has been what you describe. What you have written is a structured account of how the team, management, hours, and pay have failed to land for you. That is heavy to carry, and heavier to write out. If you are open to a conversation about what your experience has actually been, we would prioritize it. We appreciate the depth of this. ElevenLabs Talent Team

      Elitist take on indentured slavery

      Recruiter
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Product is doing well and it's ridiculously easy to find talent interested in the team

      Cons

      The whole team believes dying for ElevenLabs is the only possible route. Only hire from "thE BesT UniSS" (which is like.. 3), whole countries considered "lazy", people with kids considered "too interested in having a life". 5 recruiters were fired before the end of their probation, and more keep on being fired. They have no idea what they're doing but are so convinced they are right People are lowballed if they don't negotiate

      Thank you for the time you put into writing this. The picture you describe is hard to read, and not the experience we want any recruiter to walk away with after their first year here. What you describe is not the team or the company we want to be. Hearing this from a former recruiter, with this level of detail and pain in the framing, is feedback that needs to be heard, not skimmed. What you have raised deserves more than a public reply can offer. If you would be open to a conversation about your time, we would value it. We appreciate the depth of what you have shared.

      Strong Ownership

      Engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Strong ownership with lots of autonomy, moving very quickly, super interesting space (forefront of AI!). Lots of very motivated/smart people

      Cons

      Fast moving often means stressful/not a 9-5. Expect evening/weekend work. IMO well worth it for the pro's but not for everyone

      Thank you for the balanced review. You weighed the cost concretely (evening and weekend work) and still recommended the role. Hearing the trade has felt worth it for you so far matters to us. We appreciate the read, thank you. ElevenLabs Talent Team
