Pros

I really enjoyed my time here. They were great people, easy to talk to and had a great sense of understanding when it came to respecting balance. My department was amazing. We were a great team.

Cons

My honest opinion about this company is that towards the end I just felt it failing. Growth was stagnant and the incentives were diminishing. I wasn’t provided a raise for 3 years and I actually had a big pay cut after my first year because they couldn’t afford to keep paying me the same. I stayed because I was loyal, but silly me. It’s a shame because they could be much bigger but they just can’t seem to find a way to hash out the deeper issues here. No growth at ALL. I gave up after I knew it wasn’t gonna be anything to move up from. I just stayed because I picked up my laptop and worked from wherever I wanted. That was fun but it became old quickly and I have way more ambition than that. I still wish them luck

Pros

It used to be great

Cons

Leadership thinks AI is the great answer to everything. AI is the excuse to lay off literally 100 of the 140 people in one year! Those who are "lucky" enough to keep their job are just punished to absorb all the extra work. Constant whiplash of where the company is going. Every few months it changes from quality products and less volume to we'll sell everything without any human eyes needed for approval. AI will do it all Again, they laid off 100 of 140 people in a year
