Pros

If I could give zero stars I would. If you like drinking the kool aid and not having a voice, this place is for you. If you want to work in a professional environment where people show respect, this place is not for you.

Cons

- Micromanagers - Slack usage from hell - Be prepared to suck up at every turn or be gone - Mirage that you will make a lot of money if they IPO. Only people making the money will be the executives. - Customer retention falling off a cliff. Selling junk products with perception they are world class. - The list goes on and on. This place is awful. Run away.

Pros

Fully remote, flexible, and monthly stipends. Good pay.

Cons

Shady leadership. Tendency to hire employees for a specific reason only to dissolve their position once whatever project they forecasted for the employee is complete. I’ve seen it happen to multiple employees during my employment until it finally happened to me after a few years. Was advised by a former employee in leadership that I would more than likely be overloaded with work and worked out the door in some way because that was their trend. I didn’t believe it but it started happening to many people around me. I don’t trust these people and managers are very loose lipped, move sloppily, and doesn’t know how to not let secrets slip out. I knew my position was being dissolved from meetings I saw on my managers calendar. Luckily I started applying for jobs because I saw the writing on the walls. I had something else lined up but was still a bit blindsided because I was clearly communicating need for help to my leadership. Multiple interviews asking how I was doing and what I needed help with only for 3 days later to be told my position was no longer needed.
