Pros

The recruiters I interacted with before and after I was hired were very nice and always responsive.

Cons

To preface, I come from a hyper-growth startup background and am well-versed in advanced SaaS applications. I was here for two weeks and fell for the smoke and mirrors about how supportive and transparent the culture is and was ready to bring my extensive operations management, coaching, and high-touch client service skills to the table. Instead, I quickly learned how under-handed management is when they collected my feedback requesting more training and unfairly used it against me to my surprise. First of all, there is no formal training. They unrealistically expect you to watch someone typing an email for an hour a day to learn everything by osmosis. I realized they don't care for you to learn the protocols before diving in to handle client inquiries via email, chat, or phone; rather, they prefer you use a "fake-it-to-make-it" approach with clients instead. As of the second week when “training” began, I was scheduled to be in back-to-back meetings daily, to interview candidates, and unreasonably expected to close the same number of email tickets as entry-level hires who weren't tasked with other responsibilities. When I asked them how they considered that a fair comparison I just got blank stares and was told my feedback would be used “for next time.” Very strange. The meetings were excessive with little or no breaks in between. I had minimal time to work on 1-2 client requests right before the end of the day and that was the only hands-on practice with the system I was able to get with limited to no direction. When I expressed this, the other manager made the embarrassing excuse of telling me “I know it was unfair that you were in meetings all day and didn’t have time to train, but you could have multi-tasked by attending meetings and training (yourself) on the side.” So basically, they don’t care if you are not paying attention in meetings but couldn’t sensibly tell me not to attend them in the first place so I can focus on learning at a more reasonable pace? Again, very strange. The entire experience was so weird and a first in my career. All I can say is, it's a blessing to be parting ways and averting this dishonest and toxic dynamic. I hope this review helps other seasoned professionals stay away before getting scammed by this revolving door agency that is trying to pose as a startup.

Pros

- high agency, lots of room to make an impact - expectations are high but tons of opportunity for growth if you're performing - accessible, down-to-earth management and leadership - incredible, kind, and hard working coworkers - you 100% get out of this company what you put into it, commitment is rewarded

Cons

- very start-up-y still, things change fast and not everything is executed perfectly the first time - similar to the above point, but there are definitely growing pains. the company is successful and scaling rapidly which means we're often figuring things out on the fly as a team

Pros

There is NOTHING positive about this place!!!

Cons

Do not let the interviews fool you. The executive team can be polished and persuasive, but what they promise bears no resemblance to reality. I was recruited for a senior leadership role and it became the worst experience of my career. They told me the first ninety days would be learning. My charter was changed twice in the first six weeks. Zero consistency, zero direction, just constant pivoting. I got zero constructive feedback my whole time there. The team was too “busy” to onboard me or help me figure out the complex political environment (think high school clique). The Chief Product Officer was never bought into my role — it felt like I was pushed onto him unwillingly. Very negligent hiring practices. Leadership micromanages through daily Loom video updates, which is as ineffective as it sounds. They claim a six week roadmap but it’s really two weeks. They use AI as an excuse to avoid actual planning. When I raised concerns, I was let go in under two months. The severance was an insult. You cannot join as a leader when your team doesn’t want you there and leadership has no vision for your role or keeps changing your charter. Not ready for senior talent in any department. This is a WARNING- don’t join this company!!! You’ll end up unemployed.
