Pros

When I joined, the company seemed so alive and well. We have a solid list of high profile clients and seem to do well in the industry. There are a lot of talented and motivated people here.

Cons

New C-suite management has brought in a lot of process and structural changes. I wouldn't quite call it micro-management yet, but it seems to be headed in that direction. The metrics being used to measure performance has actually slowed us down quite a bit (admittedly, not all of it is bad, but a lot of it is). We're currently undergoing some restructuring (mass layoffs). Perhaps it is a move in the right direction given the momentum of AI tools in this day and age, but these "growing pains" are effecting the livelihoods of the workers here. It's going to get worse before it gets better. To be fair, it may be an industry-wide phenomenon.

Pros

The only pro of this company is the fully remote work (which also comes with its cons).

Cons

It’s a long list: 1. Micromanagement 2. Politics 3. Promoting long time buddies (with no skills) over skilled young professionals. 4. Ignoring company values when it comes to internal mechanics. Suddenly things aren’t important enough if it doesn’t make you money. 5. Complete misalignment between sales, product and engineering. They sell everything that’s not even in the pipeline for product. 6. The CPO and VP of Product are circus heads, not real professionals. 7. People with different opinions aren’t appreciated. 8. Slack and Outlook tools are monitored for status and location just to come up with any reason for layoffs. 10. Base comp is okay at first but then capped strongly.
