Where to start. At Sonder there is a consistent pattern of hiring narcissistic directors whose sole goal is self-promotion and to cash in big when (and if) there is an IPO. Employees are not supported, grown or retrained when systems change overnight, (which they do quite often). You are just let go. No warning. The culture while you work there is nasty, mean-girl high school sort of antics. One director was heard telling a direct report that they disgust them, another use to pretend to strangle people if they did something wrong. Twice the head of recruiting has just got up from their desk and walked out due to pressure to hire, hire, hire at all costs. Most people try to hang in there for one year and ultimately leave. It is a high pressure, low pay, toxic environment. They care about growth only so they look enticing for investors. How employees are treated is of no importance to them. Word to the wise, if you are interviewing here read ALL the reviews but know the good ones are posted by recruiting. There was a big internal push to have people post positive reviews because the truth was hurting their recruiting efforts.
