Thanks! I love that you think we still have a start-up feel. As a 25-year-old company, that is a non-trivial achievement. While we aren't a big company, we aren't small either and have been in business for a long time. I think the way we keep that start-up vibe is to be super-focused on innovating for our customers and trying to move as quickly as possible. On compensation, we strive to be at market for our rewards. We track that on an ongoing basis and make adjustments as needed. We encourage all our employees to engage with us if they feel there is still a gap.

Pros

- hybrid environment - comunter benefit

Cons

- Toxic Leadership Culture: Incompetent, egotistical, and narcissistic management that fosters fear rather than collaboration. - Zero Upward Mobility: No clear career paths or growth opportunities; promotions and recognition are rare or politically driven. - Miserable Work Environment: Employees, especially those who’ve been there long-term, appear burned out, disengaged, and deeply unhappy. - Soul-Sucking Atmosphere: The energy is heavy, draining, and creatively stifling — it feels like survival, not inspiration. - Widespread Negativity: Teams spend more time gossiping, complaining, or blaming others than actually collaborating or problem-solving. - Divisive Leadership: Leadership preaches values like inclusion and teamwork but acts in the opposite way — creating silos and favoritism. - HR Complicity: HR prioritizes protecting toxic management over supporting employee well-being or addressing serious workplace issues. - Culture of Fear and Bullying: Bullies are rewarded and thrive in the environment, while kind, collaborative, and talented people often leave. - Lack of Accountability: Poor performers in leadership roles face no consequences; bad behavior is normalized. - Hypocritical “Culture” Messaging: Company values are used as PR slogans, not guiding principles — nothing authentic about the “people-first” narrative. - Rampant Discrimination: Racism, Islamophobia, and other forms of bias are openly tolerated or ignored by leadership — creating a hostile environment for anyone outside the “inner circle.” -Declining Business & Outdated Product: Revenue continues to fall because the product is irrelevant in a changing economy — especially during a recession. Leadership refuses to innovate or face reality. - Overall Dysfunction: The company is a case study in how not to run a business — a revolving door of talent, crumbling morale, and no vision for the future.
