Apollo.io reviews

All of the reviews about the toxicity of this company are true, I have never worked somewhere where so many people are deeply unhappy and getting through the workday is more about survival than anything else. This includes: - The CEO is an extreme micromanager. Any meeting with him will include him disregarding any prep work and instead pulling up a blank document to dictate exactly what you should be doing and how. - The company is myopically focused on processes versus the strategy of what we're trying to build and why. Our "strategy" consists of a bunch of different docs in Notion (that change multiple times a quarter without explanation) that no one can really understand. But that doesn't matter as long as you're filling out whatever piece of paperwork that you need to fill out that week-- that's what you'll be judged on. - The overall culture is one of fear-- everyone is afraid of getting berated or fired so individuals and teams spend time passing blame and throwing each other under the bus. There is very little sense of "win as one team" (even though that's one of our company values), everyone is just looking out for themselves.
