Pros

This place used to have great leadership. That all changed in December of last year when they made some questionable hires. I was lucky to have left earlier this year.

Cons

I don't think the new leadership in place understands what the product does. We can't be selling into spaces that don't need/utilize it. The GTM plan was horrible and when you tried to explain why you were told to do your job and let the experts take care of the product.

Pros

Good product providing incredible value add if used the right way!

Cons

Sales Leaders hired turned the company into a "low growth company" which has high negative impacts into the future direction of Neo4j (eg IPO?, investments, potential acquisitions and partnerships). Turned the company from a highly motivated Sales team into a big company ego thinking where the only positive is the high salary they pay to make new hires sign up. Poor leadership all over.

Pros

- The company has strong potential in its market, and there are some talented, dedicated individuals scattered throughout. - Salaries are competitive compared to industry standards. - A few teams maintain a collaborative and positive working environment despite broader cultural challenges.

Cons

- Leadership has allowed a toxic culture to emerge, particularly within certain teams like marketing and revenue. Many leaders seem more focused on playing politics than addressing core business needs or supporting their teams. - The CMO appears unprepared for the challenges of a startup environment, showing a lack of visibility and inspiration. The leadership team operates in a fearful, sycophantic dynamic rather than making bold, strategic decisions for the business. - The company has consistently missed its growth targets, with leadership pivoting to more modest goals instead of addressing systemic issues. This has resulted in fewer opportunities for promotions, growth, or merit increases for employees. - Benefits are lackluster: PTO is not competitive compared to other tech startups (3 weeks in the US) and no 401k match. - The removal of quarterly wellness days reflects a tone-deaf approach to employee wellbeing. - Overall morale and culture seem to be deteriorating, with a sense that the organization is shifting to a “do more with less” mentality.
