      Terrible culture, horrible leadership

      Sales representative
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great product, salary above average.

      Cons

      Awfully immature leadership. Hours are long with little reward or recognition. Leadership thinks being part of ElevenLabs is a reward on itself, so don't you dare ask for extra shares or any kind of reward for exceeding your targets, this is a startup. The culture is terrible. All remote team with siloed communication. ElevenLabs operates on need to know basis, so it's extra difficult to properly sell. The team is either over hyped or disgusted at what is going on. People are summarily dismissed with no warning or conversation with the rest of the team. No career growth unless leadership likes you. Leadership likes you if you agree with them and work 70 hours a week.

      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

      kids with big egos

      Sales account executive
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - amazing product, great engineering & researches. You know the company will continue doing well and flying. Good marketing and probably the highest innovative company in the world - Good place to learn and meet VC's , innovative companies and very high intense , business minded people

      Cons

      - Unfortunately leadership is whack. Feedback is not taken well as 30year olds get their ego hurt when you do so. - Work like a big just after after 6months, before 1 day probation they let you go. You see this across departments - salary is very little and whatever your OTE is , x10 thats your quota. Not the place to make money - If you have kids forget it - its only single people with availablity to travel 100% - little equity - book of business is consistently changing - No loyal to the people / staff - you are irrepleacable and thats what seniors from the company what to demonstrate

      Hi there, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. While it’s tough to hear that aspects of your time at ElevenLabs haven’t met your expectations, we truly value the feedback - it helps us understand where we need to improve. The concerns you’ve raised around leadership, compensation, workload, and support for people with different personal circumstances are important. It’s clear from your comments that we haven’t consistently delivered the experience we want for everyone on the team. You noted that you’re a current employee, and I would really appreciate the chance to speak confidentially. Understanding the specifics behind your feedback would help us identify where our processes, communication, or expectations aren’t serving people well as we continue to scale. We remain committed to building a culture where people feel supported, respected, and able to grow - and your feedback underscores the work still to be done. Thank you again for sharing your perspective. Best wishes, Milly, People Success
