Pros

If you are pro-active and take advantage of the accessibility to resources, senior executives, etc, you can create a good environment for yourself and succeed. A lot of the people there are patient and willing to teach if asked/given the opportunity. As an organization, they are going through some growing pains, but they are trying to fix the problems and are looking for opportunities to continually improve. From a product perspective, they are looking to become more strategic and mature in the space - so can be tough at times, but you can/will have support if you communicate, collaborate and take initiative. Otherwise, I personally worked with a great team - they were thisclose to getting me to stay.

Cons

Company is pretty spread out (international), so the hours aren't always ideal when trying to collaborate with some of the other offices There is some "dead weight" that needs to be addressed

Pros

Nice people at the general employee level. Gives the vibe of an exciting place to work.

Cons

The office culture was once fantastic, but in the past month or so, it has deteriorated. The company is losing key people and retaining individuals who may not be the right fit. There are remote workers and those in other countries who believe they understand the office dynamics but are often uninformed and still making decisions. Additionally, there are several managers who should not be in leadership positions, which negatively impacts those working with them. While there are many loyal employees, that loyalty is not always reciprocated by senior leadership. The c-suite and executive teams are largely made up of individuals who have been with the company for a long time but may not necessarily be the right people for their roles. Fortunately, the company has recently started hiring externally for these positions, which could bring much needed change. Very little room for growth. There also seems to be a stark contrast in how the tech side values its employees compared to the commercial side, which is reflected in the overall team dynamics.
