Pros

- Coworkers, customers, vendors alike are good people - top talent. - Many within saw promotions, lateral shifts, and opportunities to engage with new tech, attend conferences, and lead projects. - Business knew how to change and adapt to new information and leaders would call themselves out. - Solid product Was decent place to work at various points, though depends a lot on the department/manager/location. Don’t expect too much and you won’t be disappointed.

Cons

- Lack of empathy, trust and transparency from various leadership members often made people feel replaceable, under appreciated, and overworked. - Visible favoritism of individuals, departments (sales), and location heighten in-office politicking. - Unclear growth paths, learning opportunities for those outside of sales - The constant rallying of how amazing the company is only to realize they mismanaged spending that led to a large layoff. - The way the layoffs were handled.

Own Company Response

We have to agree with you on our people- we hire the absolute best talent in the market to ensure our company is always driving forward. We empower our employees to be their best by offering resources to further develop their skills and competencies, like tools, technology, off-site opportunities, and stretch projects. Career growth paths and learning opportunities are an essential part of the employee experience. We are currently focused on offering learning and development opportunities to all employees who want to grow their careers. One of our core values as a company is ‘we build trust through transparency.’ We communicate openly, honestly, and often to ensure our employees are in the loop. Unfortunately, with the current market landscape, we made difficult decisions. These decisions were not made lightly.
