Toxic work environment, toxic management - Anonymous employee Labelbox Employee Review

Pros

Hard to say anymore considering the cons.

Cons

Manu Sharma (CEO) and executives are absolutely toxic and foster a toxic engineering culture. They DO NOT CARE about people. If they don't like you personally they will find any excuse to get rid of you. They think the best way to improve productivity is to fire people, and they fire people en mass on a regular basis. On the other hand, if you are close to them they will go to great lengths to protect you, even if you are a manager and have committed harassment against a subordinate. It is unclear if they even understand what software engineering entails, and the have no concept of how to manage a SaaS product. Manu is completely detached from the realities of engineering, and sees Peter Thiel as a role model. He surrounds himself with yes men and uses others as his attack dog. Executives will not accept that they are often wrong and make incomprehensible decisions daily. They frequently contradicts themselves in meetings, and lack the soft skills required to manage.

Pros

The people you work with day to day. Some of the best folks I have ever met in my life. Genuinely smart, talented and driven. Legitimately the only thing that makes working there tolerable.

Cons

Where do I begin: 1) Management has no idea what they’re doing. Individuals in leadership positions have no idea what’s going on day to day and have really unrealistic expectations. 2) The culture is do what you’re told or get bad mouthed by individuals with some degree of power to the senior leadership. 3) They somehow attract amazing talent and have no idea on how to retain them. 10 people that have been absolutely essential in growth of the company’s revenue have left in the last 3 months and they have hired 1 replacement so far! the expectation is people who remain will pick up the remaining work. 4) No forward momentum or growth from research. The company is reactive as opposed to proactive. No ideation and investment in ideas that could lead to business growth. How is the division meant to succeed? 5) Middle management exists at its finest and its both a resource and a money sink. If everyone on the team can see it, its hard to understand why the senior leadership cannot.
