Pros

The CEO makes no secret of his contempt for anyone who doesn’t align with his views completely. His open disrespect towards the entire company is evident during every all-hands meeting and founders’ town hall. While he is unapologetic about his demeanor, which could be seen as preferable to inauthenticity, there are positive aspects as well. Salaries are consistently paid on schedule, and my team members are genuinely supportive and collaborative.

Cons

Guidance from the top is insufficient. Interactions with the CEO have become increasingly challenging, as his approach to decision-making seems to reflect a sense of desperation.

Pros

The compensation was strong and competitive, and it was consistently the best part of the job. If your priority is pay in the near term, that piece delivered.

Cons

I struggled with the lack of stability. It rarely felt like the ground was solid, and that uncertainty was hard to sit with over time. Return-to-office expectations seemed to change more than once, and I personally didn't find the reasoning behind those shifts clear. It was hard to plan around. I also found the performance review process difficult to trust. In my experience the outcomes didn't always seem to line up with the actual work, which made it hard to feel like I knew where I stood or how to grow. There was A LOT of turnover in leadership during my time there. With direction changing frequently, it often felt like priorities were in flux, which made it next to impossible to stay oriented.
