LOL, not at all! Engineering team is in a sorry state as the CTO and the senior leadership failed to create a cohesive organization. Such an inadequate leadership!

Thanks for your feedback. As we’ve grown through acquisition, one of our key initiatives has been bringing our amazing global technology talent together under one leadership team. We’re excited that we’ve also grown our capabilities and have been able to welcome several new leaders to the team. Establishing multiple channels for two-way communication has also been crucial, as we unite our Technology organization. This includes monthly Technology People Leader meetings to hear from our managers about what their teams are saying and need, monthly All Hands calls with plenty of time for Q&A, seeking feedback through various channels and taking onboard feedback and suggestions from Xplorers on how to keep improving things. If you’ve got ideas for how we can keep improving, please consider sharing your feedback and thoughts either with your manager, someone in the leadership team including our CTO or your People team contact. Thanks again for your feedback – it's only with clear feedback that we can keep improving things.

Explor Ever since Explor was purchased by a PE firm, every aspect of the company to the most granular detail has effectively gone up in flames. For anyone who needs context, PE firms are parasites that steal exorbitant amounts of money from the companies they buy out - and then they have 26 year old matcha drinking ‘financial associates’ in some high rise in NYC make pivotal business decisions that negatively affect hundreds of employees’ lives all because they learned in an MBA class that making the ‘costs’ line in the Excel spreadsheet go down would make the ‘profit’ line go up. The first ‘strategic’ business decision made was to cut down on software developers (to make the ‘profit’ line go up in Excel), which has resulted in a WORSE product - then they hiked the price on customers (Again, to make the ‘profit’ line go up in Excel) which as anyone would have expected, enraged ALL our customers. The resultant employees who didn’t abruptly leave are now tormented daily with more and more ignoramus ‘strategic’ business decisions and treated like ants that a child is playfully burning alive with a magnifying glass. If you want to be treated with any human dignity whatsoever, Explor will not be a good fit for you. However, if you want every day at work to feel like you are a participant in the Stanford Prison Experiment while simultaneously having to take calls at all hours from every customer who wont stop asking “Why does the software I pay money for to run my business no longer work”, Explor will be the perfect future employer for you to take that big next step in your career.
