MediaMath reviews

Upper management is unable or unwilling to make the necessary investment to seize the market opportunity available to MediaMath. A generous series C was squandered on an army of sales and account people, plus a thoroughly useless "product planning" team. Now they've had to turn around and lay off all those people, only to discover that the technology has fallen far behind the offerings of our nimbler and better-financed peers. The CEO is a fool. The presidents, Mike and Ari, are brilliant but completely out of touch with reality. The company's new restructuring won't save it: for the most part it's more of the same poor judgement. Two of the three business units are now headed by sales types with no understanding of - or interest in - the technology they're meant to be selling. Executive leadership claims to be investing in the product again, but the proof's in the pudding and there isn't any pudding yet.

Get even better at culling the bottom performers. They're having a hard time keeping up with the change and that has the effect of holding the broader team back and frustrating their coworkers. Figure out a way to reinforce the pockets of entrepreneurial culture that are leading the pack in productivity.
