Pros

Attractive self sustainable product. Smart and passionate coworkers who know and love what they do. Modern tools with flexibility to pick tech stack that works for you and your team.

Cons

Toxic leadership. Get the smartest team around the world with poor leadership infusing stress and you will get vidiq. Teams are misaligned on strategy and execution. Zero transparency. Creative product ideas and offered solutions are being ignored. There are strong experts who joined the company over last year but it will be a long road of breaking the current plateau of bad practice and toxicity.

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. It is helpful for us to hear what is going well and areas for us to improve upon. We are glad to see your positive feedback on your smart and passionate colleagues and the product. We also appreciate your feedback around leadership challenges and lack of alignment. As a growing and rapidly evolving start-up, we sometimes have competing priorities for how best to allocate resources and which product ideas to escalate. While there might not always be agreement on these things, we strive for team members to feel heard and to have transparency on why certain decisions are made. We are making continued efforts on the senior leadership team to increase our communications and collaboration with our teams. If you are interested in discussing this further, we encourage you to reach out to your manager or to HR to continue the conversation.

Pros

Really interesting problem space, and very defendable moat. Great direction from my manager as well.

Cons

Remote nature wasn't really my vibe, but I think someone older could appreciate it.
