Fast-Moving Company, Empowers People Within, Fun Culture

Pros

Best-in-class product, leading a highly competitive industry. 1st Party Tech is 2nd to none, and future couldn't be brighter with execution on the product side. Empowers individuals to take the bull by the horns. Smartest people I've ever worked with, from top to bottom. Culture is phenomenal, as work-life balance can't be better.

Cons

Communication could be improved between various departments. Sometimes there are too many people involved in the decision-making process, and with a high growth rate, it's important to stay focused and make business decisions faster and wiser.

Pros

Great product, accurate location intelligence, visionary CEO

Cons

Dysfunctional workplace. Upper management churn is a constant. CEO has a tight grip and despite asking for input, makes his own decisions that are counter to what is right for the culture. Customer service is lacking. Churning thru cash. Wants to be a data company but data doesn't sell without media.

horrible, need structure

Pros

My team is good, we support each other. It used to be a fun place to work when some of our old key execs were here. Some of the early guys really paved a way for company. The product is exciting but we can't seem to deliver on time. Some of the smartest data scientist I've ever worked with. Free beer is provided all day and catered lunch.

Cons

There is so much turn-over. The founder does not know how to run the company. People are constantly undermined and the Sales team never gets updates on product. Just total disconnect. There is too much interoffice gossip and not enough productivity. People are scared to speak up here because they will get fired on the spot. They hide it when people quit or get fired. Everyone just walks around afraid to ask questions and they mask it by throwing us happy hours each week. As another poster here said, the CFO cares more about partying then running a company.
