Pros

Work on the bleeding edge of FTP technology (lol), experience Holacracy, decent pay/benefits

Cons

Company is ruled with a fist that's as iron as it is inefficient. It's one thing to be a hard-nosed and stubborn leader who gets things done... it's another to be an emotional crybaby who inflicts the lack of love he experienced as a child on everyoe around him. Think this sounds hyperbolic? Check out the other reviews. Having worked in a range of companies - size, sector, seniority, etc - I have yet to meet an executive who more deeply enjoys demeaning and mistreating people. At times, I've wondered if that's his sole reason for keeping this wind-battered ship at sea... just so he has a small personal army to rule over... again, ineffectively. At the end of the day, it's worth reading over the recruitment site (actionverb.com) and then coming back to this Glassdoor page. It's almost as though propping up an entire website devoted to how "great" your "culture" is... when it's this bad... is overcompensating for something. Maybe a few things... Seriously - having spoken to some of the old-timers with the company vs the mass exodus of smart people that's occurring right now... I have to assume the founder experienced some sort of mental breakdown at a high level, or that someone broke one of his toys. This is an unbelievable, colossal, ridiculous, insulting, painful, pointless, concrete wall for your career. Proceed with caution. I wish I had.

Pros

You'll get to work with some great people. The company is cash-flow positive and makes money.

Cons

Company touts itself as "Holocracy Powered" but don't be fooled, it's absolutely run by the owner as his own personal fiefdom. Three out of around twenty people fired, without prior warning in a years time is a significant percentage of the company. That's bound to have an effect on morale.
