Pros

Brandfolder was part of the Smartsheet product family based on an acquisition in 2021. Brandfolder was a great sales culture with a great backing from Smartsheet being a publicly traded company. Brandfolder is a leading product in the DAM space and Smartsheet also offered great stock options as a benefit!

Cons

Smartsheet and Brandfolder are very different products with different markets. Due to the acquisition, Brandfolder was blended more and more into the Smartsheet organization and lost the culture that made it a unique place to work. Compensation plan also took a hit from year 1 to year 2.

Pros

- Remote work - Genuinely talented and collaborative individual contributors across data science and analytics - Interesting problem space with real product and customer data to work with

Cons

- BI leadership does not have hands-on data science experience, which showed in how projects were scoped, evaluated, and prioritized. - Lack of clear leadership direction for the data science function. Priorities shifted frequently, and long-term strategy was hard to pin down, which made it difficult to invest in impactful work. - Career development conversations did not match outcomes. In my case, a promotion was discussed and promised by the leadership, and I was laid off shortly after. Whether that reflects poor planning or poor faith, it left me questioning the integrity of the process. - Transparency around organizational decisions was limited, which eroded trust on the team.
