Pros
- Genuinely passionate about music, with a big and growing impact on music production culture - Lots of kind and caring people - Real long term potential if execution problems can be addressed - Supportive and caring towards employees, especially during COVID
Cons
- Exec is not aligned on the future of the company, and the vision is too big to execute on effectively. - Difficulty having necessary tough conversations - High turnover on engineering - Lots of tech debt makes it hard to make progress - Clumsy with DEI. It comes from a genuine desire to grow, but folks from underrepresented groups have been put in uncomfortable positions as we 'have conversations as a company.' That said, I feel Splice's commitment is more real than I've seen elsewhere.
