MediaMath reviews

Mediamath has gone from a democracy and meritocracy to one man shouting orders from the ivory tower. Product leadership, while open to suggestions, has not laid out a clear vision for what is it that Mediamath is vying to do in the next 2-5 years. While I understand revenue is king, queen and the kingdom, the lack of product vision is seriously concerning. If we decided to prioritize our clients' demands as opposed to having the same priority on EVERYTHING and spent some time and engineering resources on building a solid product, we could possibly cut down the amount of money we spend on schmoozing the clients with fancy lunches and dinners and actually sell them a product that serves their need, than a constant promise for a better future. it also doesn't help that it is one person running the show. The CEO isn't as engaged as he used to be. Mediamath is surviving because of the stature of the CEO as a visionary in the ad-tech space. People in product are falling like flies and the place has a feel of a sinking ship.

Many engineers and product managers have left the company, resulting in critical product improvements and roadmap coming to a complete stop. As a result, everything is smoke and mirrors, in other words if you’re a sales person you’ll have to over promise and underdeliver at the expense of your relationships and reputation. Once you look under the hood you'll be attacked by a feral creature and will want to beeline to a therapist because you'll realize you made a huge mistake! Non-competes - all the other reviews are true; they will go after you if you leave MediaMath for any of the 15 perceived competitors (including all the tech giants/FAANG). People have been sued, spent $$$$ on lawyer fees and lost job offers as a result. That said if you're still seriously considering MediaMath then keep in mind that they need you more than you need them, have them remove the NCA clause from your offer letter.
