Pros

No pros honestly. This place is fully toxic. I can’t think twice and think of why I joined this company. The CEO canceled twice on us while we’re still trying to meet and greet.

Cons

This company has no managment system. They have no product adoption and move up people who don’t deserve to be managers. Some manager are just not made managers and they can’t afford to manage a team or even motivate people but rather try to bring them down and play them. Not me sir. On another note, the CEO doesn’t care about investing into employees but rather care much about making money which is reasonable but at the same time think about your employees and put them at a high priority since they are serving the company. the Enviroment of this company is very unwelcoming, no sense of friendliness, no sense of leadership, everyone is lost at this company based on what I observed. Lastly, very old school. All of the people I met are arrogant. Very bad culture to be in.

Pros

Really kind people work here, for the most part everyone I have worked with is smart and I have learned so much from them. There are great benefits: unlimited PTO, 6 week paid sabbatical is earned after 4 years of employment, 6 month maternity leave. Great location of an office. Great work life balance.

Cons

Not very competitive pay and it is easy to hit a ceiling in your career development. New HR policies are kind of strange, will not promote you unless you make enough money to be promoted which they designed the system to make it so you cannot go up. HR has also laid people off because they make too much money without considering the consequences of removing senior employees with unique/not stored intelligence vital to the company. They also hired a bunch of remote employees, then implemented a 4 day required in office rule no matter if you live states away from an office, which pushed hundreds of people to quit, not receive their bonus, and not require M* to pay them severance. It didn't use to be this way but the last year or so has been strange.
