A long road to success

Pros

Attractive self sustainable product. Smart and passionate coworkers who know and love what they do. Modern tools with flexibility to pick tech stack that works for you and your team.

Cons

Toxic leadership. Get the smartest team around the world with poor leadership infusing stress and you will get vidiq. Teams are misaligned on strategy and execution. Zero transparency. Creative product ideas and offered solutions are being ignored. There are strong experts who joined the company over last year but it will be a long road of breaking the current plateau of bad practice and toxicity.

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. It is helpful for us to hear what is going well and areas for us to improve upon. We are glad to see your positive feedback on your smart and passionate colleagues and the product. We also appreciate your feedback around leadership challenges and lack of alignment. As a growing and rapidly evolving start-up, we sometimes have competing priorities for how best to allocate resources and which product ideas to escalate. While there might not always be agreement on these things, we strive for team members to feel heard and to have transparency on why certain decisions are made. We are making continued efforts on the senior leadership team to increase our communications and collaboration with our teams. If you are interested in discussing this further, we encourage you to reach out to your manager or to HR to continue the conversation.

Worst decision of my career

Pros

Zero, this has been the worst stop of my career

Cons

1) I was lied to during the interview process about what was needed. If they had been upfront, I would have know that VidIQ's needs and my skills were not aligned. 2) Management was constantly demanding answers before datasets were stat sig. 3) No onboarding process. No one told me to buy a computer until 2 days before my start date. This lack of process started from day zero until I left. 4) Their data is utter trash. When I showed up you could not connect Email to video stats. They wanted analysis of different users profiles, but the foundation data couldn't support connecting a user profile to video stats. It was a joke. 5) Some of the original employees would push back on analytic needs, even though the company hired two analytic experts and the original employee had no back ground. Everything was a fight with someone who didn't really have the analytic skills but had power with the management

Beware

Pros

The product enables creators and entrepreneurs. Remote culture allows for flexibility.

Cons

The company is starting to build a very cruel leadership team. This is creating an environment of fear and anxiety. There have been arbitrary lay-offs all in the name of progress and leveling up. But that doesn't seem to be the case to me. These employees are not great leaders. The saving grace would be if they are really great at their craft. This would mean the company will be successful, but there will be high turnover. I'm not sure how this will all shake out. I do have a long list of companies I wouldn't work for, but wouldn't bet against. I would count this as one of them. All my opinion of course. Hopefully you find something different here.
