      Pros

      Most people within the company are nice and easy to get along with. Fully remote is always good.

      Cons

      They set unrealistic expectations. Specifically, the CEO. They tell you what you want to hear, but end of the day you are just numbers on a piece of paper. If there are exact reasons why certain numbers aren't being met, they'll tell you that they will hear you out and be understanding, but when it actually happens, they threaten to and/or fire you. They're full of it.

      Thank you for taking the time to offer your feedback. I'm glad you enjoy our remote work culture, and I appreciate your kind words about our people. Our employees are our greatest asset, and I apologize if I or anyone else has ever said anything to make you think differently. As a service provider, our clients expect us to deliver on the projects they give us to staff. Our metrics and my expectations are aligned with the needs of our clients and talent ensure we are delivering on the service they count on us to deliver. They are also aligned with staffing industry best practices. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss your concerns further. Please feel free to slack me or email me and we can set up time to meet.

      Pros

      Strong entrepreneurial mindset with real ownership and autonomy. Leadership encourages initiative, creative problem-solving, and building new ideas from the ground up. Great environment for self-starters who want to make an impact.

      Cons

      Must be quick on your feet! Priorities may shift quickly, requiring comfort with ambiguity and rapid change.
