Pros

At times, the way the company treats its employees, especially the delivery team, is deeply discouraging. Leadership tends to focus heavily on mistakes while rarely recognizing wins, which creates a punitive atmosphere that leaves people feeling demoralized and questioning their performance. There is a clear need for meaningful change among long-tenured leaders, as concerns about favoritism have become increasingly evident that I once ignored as water cooler talk, but it is now evident. Overall, the culture has grown increasingly toxic and is negatively impacting morale.

Cons

Many employees feel afraid to speak up for fear of repercussions, and there’s a growing sense of anxiety about job security and making mistakes that leadership may disproportionately scrutinize. This approach needs to shift if the company wants to stay competitive with others that are outperforming it. The qualities that once made this a great place to work, strong incentives, meaningful perks, and talented colleagues, have eroded, replaced by cuts, removal of bonuses, reduced benefits, and the loss of valued team members.

Thank you for sharing your experience. When someone describes our culture as toxic, I do not take that lightly as a founder. Over the past year, the company has gone through an intentional reset. As leadership, we took a hard look at our priorities and sharpened our focus. That meant simplifying where we had become fragmented and raising execution standards across every function. With clearer focus comes clearer accountability. Change at this level is never easy. We are building a high-performance company with experienced leadership and board oversight. That includes direct feedback, measurable outcomes, and at times, difficult conversations. For some, that environment is energizing. For others, it can feel intense. Intensity, however, is not the same as toxicity. Culture is experienced individually, and if someone felt unheard or unsupported, that is important feedback for us. We remain committed to building a company that combines high standards and accountability. We would truly value the opportunity to listen to your concerns directly. Whether with your manager or our Director of People and Culture, we invite a conversation where you can feel supported and where we can work toward a better mutual understanding. We wish you the best moving forward. Kristel Kruustük Founder and Board Director

Pros

The renewed company focus allows teams to prioritize effectively and maintain alignment. The leadership team is grounded, motivated, and highly collaborative. The product strategy successfully embraces AI, positioning the company to define the future of AI testing.

Cons

The volume of organizational change over the past year was a bit high. While these pivots were clearly made to ensure both near and long-term success, so much change can lead to change fatigue. I believe that leadership maintaining the current level of transparency will be key as the org continues to stabilize under the new focus.

Talent can’t bloom where mobbing and favoritism thrive

Pros

Testlio offers competitive salaries and fair compensation for the work delivered. The founders are genuinely kind, passionate, and committed to keeping the company running through every challenge. There’s a sense of purpose in the early roots of the company you can feel that it was built with care and a vision for quality. Some areas are full of talented, warm people who truly want to make a difference, and collaborating with them was always a rewarding experience.

Cons

The layoff and offboarding process felt inhumane. People were treated as if they had done something wrong no opportunity to speak during the call, no personal note, and immediate removal of access. It was deeply disappointing. There’s a culture of favoritism within certain circles where some individuals are consistently protected and promoted despite poor behavior. Mobbing and discriminatory comments were often ignored, even when formally reported. I personally documented evidence of these situations, yet the HR person who initially supported me was later let go. Communication is often one-sided messages go unanswered, feedback is dismissed, and meetings are canceled without explanation. Over time, the company shifted its focus from teamwork to individual competition, creating a more toxic atmosphere. Many employees have learned to stay silent or pretend everything is fine out of fear of being the next target. Was proud to be part of the team once, but favoritism and mobbing culture broke what made Testlio special.
