Pros
I once received a theragun.
Cons
Where do I even start with this dumpster fire of a company. So much potential squandered away by the toxic leadership team. I have never seen someone hire such a team of rockstars, with pedigrees of success in their job histories, be stripped of all their creative thinking, problem solving and charisma to become yes men (people) for him. Leadership tactics are that of a caveman: Talk you in circles until you submit to whatever terrible idea is baked up in their brain. The need to control every insignificant detail makes me wonder if there wasn't a billion-dollar head start, they would be living at the homeless camp at LAX. They also have this very odd obsession with Apple, like unhealthy obsession. The tactics of the company are to portray innovation, when in reality they steal ideas from others and claim as their own R&D. I quickly realized the plan was to extort any useful information and then be dispensed. The onboarding was more of a waterboarding as they just throw as much at you as possible to see if you will drown. Zero Support, Zero Structure. A planned attrition. I have never seen a company celebrate giving people money vs opening new points of distribution. Leadership just wants to be able to brag to his other billionaire buddies that he hoodwinked a bunch of the founders friends into investing into this house of cards. Then, um lets talk about um um um, HR um. Take a toastmasters class and learn how to public speak, its unbelievably painful to um sit through um space filler words and fake excitement. Kudos to them for creating the most toxic work environment I have ever had the um displeasure of being a part of. you are a kind soul with nothing but good intentions, and it pains me to see what has been done to your company and vision. You sold your soul to the devil, but I hope the success you have had is worth it, because the company’s name has turned sour in the industry where you grew your roots. Too worried about the sizzle, you forgot about the steak, and that will catch up sooner or later. Most likely after the CEO puts on his dog and pony show, props the valuation up on smoke and mirrors, then sell to some poor sap, or go public and get money from a bunch of poor saps. Either way, the rug is going to get pulled out sooner or later.
