Pros

The company had an amazing pool of talent. The most intelligent, creative individuals work here. It is a joy to their ideas come together. The offices are brand new and really stand out.

Cons

They have horrible management processes. There is no HR. None whatsoever. It feels like an episode of "The Office". Something minor -- who sends out what emails, who had the sale, what is going to be eaten for birthday lunch -- blows up into a major event. There is not always a clear direction for the work that is being done. Everything feels reactive.

Pros

They have free snacks, tea, and coffee.

Cons

I worked at SmartSign briefly, and my experience was both frustrating and disappointing. From day one, management lacked direction. I was brought on as a security engineer but quickly realized they had no real plan for the role. I completed the project they assigned without any issues. Then, after leaving early one day for a doctor’s appointment (with notice), I was abruptly terminated the very next morning for "poor performance." There had been zero feedback, no concerns raised, and no expectations set—nothing. It felt like I was used to complete a one-off task, then discarded without justification. Whether it was retaliation for the doctor visit or just a pretext to cut costs, the way it was handled showed a complete lack of professionalism and integrity. I wouldn’t recommend this company to anyone seeking stability, support, or transparent leadership.
