Strong Products, Weak Management - Anonymous employee Goliath Technologies Employee Review

Working closely with small teams. Leadership is highly involved and engaged. The company has executed on a vision that will allow us to leverage where the market is going.

It's not a huge company so there is a lot for each person to tackle, but that also makes it fun.

Relatively quick application and hiring process

I was fired on my first day after moving to Philadelphia for the job after trying to clarify my job expectations with my boss. After overhearing my team complaining about all the overtime they had been working, I met with my boss to discuss how much overtime I should anticipate since I already commute an hour each way, have pets at home I’d have to coordinate care for, and didn’t know overtime was expected. I didn’t insinuate that I didn’t want to work overtime, just that it wasn’t mentioned during my interviews so I was caught off guard hearing my coworkers all talking about it. I was fired on the spot. So if you care about work/life balance, and even if they tell you during interviews that they also care about work/life balance, know that that’s not really the case. Also know that simply asking questions may cost you your job.
