Pros

4-day work week, respectful colleagues, decent pay

Cons

Company hired too quickly and then the market became mildly questionable. Board forces layoffs and CEO goes along with it.

Pros

Great tech - they spend so much on software tools and collaboration software CRM tools. Lots of monthly $$$ subscriptions being paid out so employees can work faster

Cons

DO NOT accept an outbound sales position here. They lie to your face, so many examples of this. 1) 4 day work week- they claim to have this but in reality it is expected that you are available and working 5 days. 2) New hires are given onboarding support - they do not support new hires much, they don’t even have a training deck or IT support. I had to figure everything out myself. The HR team tried to troubleshoot issues but they are not trainers or even experienced with the various tools. It’s really a bad experience. 3) You will be compensated for outbound sales - they don’t have any systems in place to track sales leads so if you generate a contact and then it comes in as a sale from the website or other means, the sale doesn’t get credited to your efforts. Sometimes up to 7 sales a week we’re going to Monograph internal and not being credited to my DOCUMENTED sales outreach. I lost thousands in commission due to their messy accounting and processes.4) They care about their employees/ culture - this lie hurts so many who genuinely invest in workings at Monograph only to find out that they do not matter. In one day they laid off half of their sales team - one day after having a big culture building event and celebrating the “team” and diversity. The irony is that they laid off the following employees 1 black man, 1 homosexual, 1 senior citizen and 1 Yoga instructor ( he was white and very zen!) They wiped them all off the roster after bragging about what a diverse and strong culture there was. Bottom line, the lies added up to many months of disappointing experience and made me wish I had never accepted their offer of employment.

Unstable Leadership

Pros

Most employees work remote Computer is provided, stipend issued for additional supplies/setup

Cons

Monograph is unstable and decisions are made rashly. Two of the three Co-Founders left, which was writing on the wall. There is no opportunity for advancement or improvement. There have been several "mass layoffs" and morale is complete garbage. Although "people first" is one of the most harped on company "value," it is clear that there is no value in the people that work there. If you are prepared to be "a number," this may be a great place for you! Internal/interdepartmental communication remains the #1 thing that needs to be fixed after each review, but nothing has changed. Everything is a surprise, and in the absolute worst way.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. While we’re sorry to hear your experience wasn’t what you hoped, we want to share some additional context. As part of Monograph’s evolution, two of our co-founders transitioned out of day-to-day operations to make space for experienced leadership from companies with a history of scaling successfully. We view this as a major step forward, not backward. Building a sustainable company means evolving our leadership as we scale, and we’re proud of the team we have in place today. We know communication and clarity are critical, especially during times of change. While we’re continually working to improve, we remain committed to building a culture where people feel supported and set up for success. We appreciate your time with us and wish you the best in your next chapter. — The Monograph Team
