Awesome culture & benefits

Pros

Wonderful culture as the CEO genuinely cares about the happiness and success of his employees. A great place to jump start your career out of college with amazing opportunities to grow.

Cons

The cons of working here are slim to note. One could say working from home is a con, however I find the day is 100x more productive. Having face to face interactions with your colleagues also has a great influence on mental health.

Pros

A lot of people at the company are absolutely wonderful and intelligent. There's a potential to get a lot of great hands on experience and people don't coddle you or block you with red tape.

Cons

As many others have said, the culture is pretty strict and forced top-down from David Morken. If you aren't religious, enjoy working out all the time, or have traditional family values, you probably wont' be very valued (long term) here. David making light of people's struggles during the pandemic and not taking precautions seriously has made many people leave, and attrition is very high at the moment. I was really excited to join this company as the culture seemed really close knit and supportive. While I've met many great people, the overall company culture just doesn't seem to align with the people who are working there which is why so many are leaving. Not letting people be flexible and treating your employees like children is ruining chances for hiring and retaining competent people, especially those in more senior roles. Teams were already low staffed for what was expected of them, with attrition its been near on impossible.

Thanks for the review. Sorry to hear your experience has not been positive. Our culture is designed not to be top-down but rather 360 where we lift each other up, celebrate our differences and promote an environment where Bandmates can be their authentic selves and feel a deep sense of belonging.

Thanks for the review. Yes - we are an in-person culture. That's why we're making a big investment in a new headquarters campus with great amenities to keep growing in an environment of innovation and collaboration.
