Pros
- Some learning opportunities - Friendly coworkers - Decent work/life balance (but not really when compared to industry standards)
Cons
- Poor upper management (they have high stakes in the company yet seek middle managers to fix problems, drive results, and do their own work for them) - Due to overly ambitious product roadmaps and insufficient devs rushing to meet deadlines/expectations (not to mention integration nightmares with overly hyped Matcha), frustrations are aplenty - Company is trending downwards (lower retention, lower sales, less competitive product, etc.) yet has an inflated ego driven by company leaders - Best places to work awards seem to be driven by early insider employees combined with peculiar recruiting patterns seeking and filling more junior positions (don't think we don't notice) - Below average pay is offset with slightly better work/life balance - Ultimately, marketing and sales is driving this bus when in reality the tech/product should really be propelling the company forward
