GreenSlate reviews

Now, it’s a nightmare. First of all, are you aware that productions can now be run 100% by Artificial Intelligence? No actors, no writers, no production workers are required anymore. In fact, it’s even cheaper to produce with AI. Secondly, this company made the dumbest decisions ever. They brought in a couple of investors (Google it), burned all the money from the partners, and now the partners want to fire everyone and sell the product (some lines of code) to the competition. GreenSlate is giving up, and the investors just want to get some of their money back because they believe this doesn’t have any future. I was fired because I predicted AI would kill this industry. Their CEO and owner was just an accountant who got some money from the investors and hired people to put everything in the cloud. It’s a simple product with many SaaS products connected. It’s expensive to keep this product up and running without customers. Go to their LinkedIn GSlate page and watch their videos. That guy doesn’t sound, and isn’t, very smart.

The CTO. Fear-based culture. Nano-management with zero trust or autonomy. Crazy high workload. "Do more with less" has it's limits and we can't "re-double our efforts" year after year after year. Managing up and laterally to protect your team from unreasonable workload and expectations is part of executive management's job. Being a "Yes man" and pushing all the crap onto the team only leads to cutting corners, a worse product, a worse internal user experience, and an unhappy team. Burnout doesn't begin to cover the expectations and stress imposed on the tech team who haven't already quit or been laid off. I've worked at several fast-paced technology companies. This is not that. It is a toxic environment I was relieved to escape.
