Pros

Great atmosphere, great parties, amazing benefits, culture was pretty good with snacks, parties, etc.

Cons

Poor management choices across the board in terms of actions and the people themselves. Lots of praise of how well the company was doing, but then people getting fired/laid off? More work than seems possible, they need to make a clear path for themselves instead of bending over backwards for every little whim from customers which keeps taking them off of a successful path.

Pros

flexible PTO, free snacks, open concept office

Cons

This company lacks quality leadership, most of the top executives just want to point fingers, but get their hands dirty to solve problems. There is also a lack of training for incoming sales rep and lack of support from other departments for sales to succeed.

Pros

Product-wise, Urban Airship was one of the first to market and started off with a promising outlook. The new sales management team is really strong.

Cons

Originally, UA was built for push delivery and aimed at developers. Since we tried to shift gears and target marketing organizations with products like SMS and email, the product has fallen significantly short. Movement for the sake of movement has exposed a weak product development team with little-to-no experience in the space. While Gartner has been enamored by UA's box-checking in the short-term, it won't last for long. Until we get some real engineers onboard and develop a stronger product approach rooted in actual customer and competitor research, platforms like Braze and eventually Salesforce will blow past us. Customers are beginning to see these holes and are exploring other options.
