Pros

Free snacks, friendly employees, that's about it.

Cons

Management making terrible decisions across the board. They just layed off many people and kept workers who said yes over those who consistently created results. They're hiring is terrible, relying on a candidate profile that isn't listed on the application -- i.e. hiring sales people to do data heavy positions (doesn't matter now, that team barely exists) regardless of the incoming sales being completely inept and constantly needing things cleaned up after him. It's even worse when they refused to move the best contract researcher to FTE and let her go and hired a sales person who increased my workload. The departments don't speak to each other either and have no idea of who handles what and there is no escalation chain in place. The teams that support and interact with each other have no clue what the other is doing.

Hi there, Sorry to hear that you’ve had such a negative experience. We are listening to your feedback; Marin truly cares about the opinions of all our employees (past and present). While Marin did make some some tough operational decisions recently, we’ve done so to clear a path that returns the company to growth. Unfortunately, we have parted ways with some very talented and much respected team members and that is always a painful experience. These decisions are never taken lightly at Marin, but our focus remains on strengthening the company’s core platform, delighting our customers, and building a foundation for sustained growth. While our strategy is starting to yield positive results, we realize the effort and commitment that so many people have made to revitalizing the company. If you would like to talk directly with us about these changes, we’d be happy to connect. Please contact hr@marinsoftware.com anytime.
