Pros

ok area but extremely crowded space.

Cons

Constant changing priorities, Engineering leader is a POS, no leadership skills, targets employees, layoffs every quarter. Do not join engineering org, worst place to be. You are expected to work 16+ hours/day. I've worked there 2+ years, now regretting for not getting out sooner. No performance review, no bonus, no pay hikes.

When it comes to Cavirin brand and customer interest we vehemently defend it. We cannot let unfounded allegations go unanswered. Customer interest is paramount, and indeed priorities shift as we learn from our early customers. ‘Customer first’ focus, nimbleness and agility is the name of the game. We expect employees to be multi-tasking. At the same time we are sensitive and sensible about work life balance. No one is forced to work 16 hours or even 12 hours. Non-performing employees should reflect on their own work-ethic. Attempts to discredit a well-respected, hard-working, and loyal to his team (sometimes to a fault) is not the solution. We are sorry you did not have an easy experience at Cavirin, and wish you much growth in your future work endeavors. Nisha A., VP Product and GTM

Pros

Not many pros. Great product and market space, but no strategy to move it forward.

Cons

The CEO just isn't a leader. I saw one review where the company came back with a response ".... It is unfortunate when workers have to be laid off or let go, but to leave people in roles where they either can’t perform or where their talents do not align with the needs of our customers is a disservice ..." Therein lies the rub! Why have the owners left the CEO in his role then? Talk about not looking at the cold, hard facts. The entire team needs to be realigned with some, ANY, kind of strategy and leadership. No one knows what the next move will be. Other cons: terrible vacation package not commensurate with Silicon Valley companies, expensive (and not great) health benefits to cover our families, low pay and long hours to the engineering talent, cheap mindset. Management has no clue that we are all on the lookout for better jobs and have an insecure feeling in general. It weighs on the atmosphere and nothing is transparent.

Hi - Thank you for your candid views. As we leverage a great product, team, and market opportunity, I'm sure you'll see some real progress over the next few quarters. Dave G - VP Marketing. We are now new Cavirin. We realigned our priorities, retargeted the focus and rejuvinated the product. We are better Cavirin now. But, we have to admit our vacation policy is in-line with most Silicon Valley startups. Everyone has a choice to work for a company or not and know what they are getting compensated. We do believe our benefits are competitive. We are sorry your experience was not as exciting at Cavirin. Wish you best. BG, VP Engineering
