Pros

My colleagues were amazing, always helpful and willing to step in to get projects over the line.

Cons

This company lacks leadership and strategy. In the year I was there the GTM fundamentally changed 3 times which had the whole team scrambling to redo what was established just weeks later. People were let go at a whim, luckily I was never one of them. This created an air of uncertainty and lack of trust, especially when they promote someone and then let them go 3 months later. The CEO is in his first CEO role and using Zinier as an experiment. Scaling and learning from failures is normal in any busines, what is not normal is repeated bad decisions and starting from scratch every few months. I personally learnt a lot about what not to do and I'm thankful for that but don't expect to grow and have strong leadership or mentorship. That does not exist.

Thank you so much for taking the time to provide your perspective. I was happy to see your experience with other colleagues was positive -- we've got a great team that's always looking to #wintogther (one of our guiding principles) with a #passionateforgrowth. As a high-growth startup, we are constantly refining our strategy and GTM approach in ways that we hope put us in a better position to succeed in the future. We are not always right the first time around. But we do learn and we've learned a LOT over the last few years -- from our customers, from the market, and from our team members. We also understand that our pace of continuous improvement is not for everyone. And while I'm quite proud of how far we've come, I’m also truly sorry we didn't meet your expectations. Thanks again for providing your feedback, as that's how we get better as an organization. Wishing you nothing but success in the future.

Pros

I have been very impressed with the recent steps taken to bolster the team and the foundation. There seems to be a very positive momentum and I can see the maturity curve.

Cons

We seem to be in the middle of the scale up storm. Prioritization will be key.

Pros

The base salary and bonus they offer you before they lay you off within 6 months

Cons

Have no idea how the CEO of this company is a CEO for ANY company. He is less knowledgeable than the SC's on his own solution. They promise you a certain amount of money for bonuses and then never pay them out. The management here is very unprofessional with extremely poor leadership skills. Within the first week of working here, they FORCED us to give them a 5 star review on Glassdoor. Insanity. I do NOT recommend working here, ever.
