      Don’t bother

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      If you joined at the right time, the options will give you financial independence when they float

      Cons

      Founder led business, constantly micromanaged leaving a level of decision paralysis across the organisation. You’ll find that in an instant, the organisation will readjust comp and benefits, leaving the initial contract you signed to be utterly worthless. For me, despite positive feedback for my performance, my role was “reclassified” which led to a reduction in salary of 25% and having to leave in order to afford rent and bills.

      Worst culture ever known

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good value of options but already passed the best time of join

      Cons

      1. Toxic & Blame culture. No one wants to ask any questions during all staff meeting. 2. Great preferences in leadership. Especially in senior level. If your manager likes u, you can get whatever you want. Otherwise, nothing. 3. No compassion. Force people going back to office during the period of Covid. 4. Fire culture. CEO told people to leave (instead of listening) if not happy during all staff. 5. Arrogant senior leadership. Employees lost job for having different opinions. 6. Pretend listening to suggestions but never make a single change. 7. etc. Too many to name all. Better avoid it.

      Thank you for your feedback. This is not the type of review we would like to ever read from a current employee, it’s distressing for us to know that you feel this way. There is a lot to analyze here but the main thing is that we want to help you, we want to foster your time at Rokt to be one of growth and happiness, not of anger and regret. If we have come across as arrogant or not compassionate, then we apologize as that is not our intention. We care deeply about our people and rely on your feedback to help guide us where we go right and wrong. We sincerely would like to hear your advice if you’d like to send it via our anonymous channel or you can speak confidentially with any member of the People team.

      Faced paced and exciting but lots of growth pains and ego

      Product manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      * Faced paced environment, fast decisions and always moving/learning * Pays a decent salary and bonuses for performance * Inclusive of different cultures/sexual orientation/genders * Lots of activities going on internally, including annual off-sites for staff * Engineers are pretty intelligent and keen to share what they know * Good CTPO - fast thinker, listens and is always looking for ways to improve the team

      Cons

      * Work/life balance is not great, often overworked to the point of burnout for oftentimes little recognition. * Some people promoted too early and not great leaders - often favouritism and ego plays a part here, not purely merit and makes for difficult working circumstances. * Middle management a bit junior in terms of technical delivery experience and overwhelmingly dominated by a management consulting culture. * CEO still pretty hands on and seemingly struggles to let go and push decision making and trust down to his CTPO. Often means he steers most things in Product and everyone scutters to seek the CEO's approval instead of embracing a culture of bottom up autonomy and experimentation. Leaves a lot of people demotivated and scared to fail.

      Thank you for your feedback. We agree on all your thoughts about our pros and we will strive to ensure that they continue and that we foster the people and team you mention. We are a fast-paced growing business which can mean longer hours at some points during the year or while working on certain projects. We provide a robust PTO package to ensure employees take time-off to support work and life balance. We note your opinion regarding management and areas you recommend developing, we have great leaders and we are investing heavily in Learning and Development to support them. We want our employees to learn the skills needed as they climb the ladder or level up where required, to ensure our people are set up for success and their teams get the support and guidance they need. Over the last couple of months we have also invested significantly in the product team to provide an even better experience. We have increased the size of the team by ~30% to better manage workload, as well as supplemented the talented team we have today with additional product and people leadership skills and experience. We agree being proactive is the best approach across all our endeavours and will enact this moving forward. We wish you all the best in your future ventures.
