Pros
Amazing people who really care about you as a person and wonderful clients who appreciate your work. For a remote company, you wind up making extremely close friends and working with some of the most brilliant people you'll ever meet.
Cons
This company was once a great company that I was proud to be a part of. After new management took over a few years ago, things started to shift slowly and then drastically. The culture became incredibly fast-paced and unsustainable, with sales people selling things before a process or plan was created. It became clear that leadership was more interested in saying "yes" then thinking through the implications of what that "yes" meant.
During my time, I watched all my favorite people at the company burn out and lose their light. During calls when I could connect with other teammates, "how are you" was no longer met with "good" or fine." Instead, it was often responded with "tired, but hanging in there," "exhausted," or "overstretched." This company has a huge morale issue, and its evident that new management does not seem to care about keeping talent or creating a sustainable workload. When I was working there, I became pretty normalized to this until I left. After switching companies, I realized that day-to-day exhaustion is not normal and shouldn't be tolerated.
I truly grief the Carnegie I once knew, but this is no longer a place I would recommend.
