Thanks for the feedback and for your contributions to the team! I agree that our coworkers are awesome :) ... working with this amazing team is my favorite part of the job. And you're right that we're growing fast! Given that we're growing so fast, I would have expected that there would be more clear career development opportunities and I'm sorry to hear that you haven't felt this is the case. I'd also love to more fully understand your thoughts here as well as the growing pains you're seeing so please reach out anytime, add more detail in our next engagement survey, or swing by one of my office hours so we can chat. I'm all ears. I'm really glad you're part of the team and I appreciate all that you do for our customers. Thanks for taking the time to share this feedback as well.

Pros

The company started off to be great when I joined a few years back. Lots of hands on opportunities, some great people to work with. Benefits are good, people are valued and contributions are seen.

Cons

The company really started to go downhills in 2024 when there are constant leadership changes, mission changes, priorities changes and team orgs. Business Managers are starting to act like the "decision-maker" over pretty much all product and marketing decisions. We start to question if the direction we are focusing on is even right. Is it customer-centric still or is it more business-oriented. work life balance is bad stress is high people are no longer valued, heard or seen you know a company is going in a negative direction when you start to see tenured employees to leave, smart people to leave as well.
