Invoca reviews

There was a significant amount of turnover in upper management which made Invoca an unstable place to work at for the pass 24+ months. Due to poor decisions made by management during those 24+ months, there was a layoff where mostly entry level employees were let go. However, no one in management was held accountable. Invoca is completely sales centric. That is great if you work in Sales or Marketing. Not so much the case if you don't.

There’s basically no clear strategy right now beyond just saying “AI” over and over. The company isn’t focused on building the features customers actually want or that drive real revenue. A recent acquisition was a bad decision, and instead of addressing that directly, there’s been a push to force AI features into the product that customers didn’t ask for and don’t really need. Leadership has also taken a turn. It feels like the company moved away from people who genuinely cared about the product and employees to a more typical SaaS leadership style, detached, overly aggressive, and not always transparent. They are trying to get secure their parachute rather than saving the company. Some of the newer leaders are out of touch with what’s actually going on, not qualified for the roles they’re in and downright toxic individuals. Moreover, leaders are not honest among themselves, blatant lies run rampant about projects, capabilities, timeless, and even basic research. A lot of long-tenured employees seem to see where things are headed and are either leaving or trying to. Performance reviews, raises, and bonuses are heavily tied to vague AI-related metrics instead of the actual work people are responsible for. At the same time, there’s no real investment in helping employees build those skills, and the company doesn’t seem to have a strong, market-ready AI product to back it up. Career growth is pretty limited. There aren’t clear paths for advancement, and it’s hard to see how you’re supposed to progress within the company.
