Pros

-Technology provides backup and restore for sfdc and it works well.

Cons

-Management is awful- gossip, favoritism, overall treats employees like crap. -No Trust -There are several negative reviews that don’t make it to Glassdoor. OwnBackup flags negative reviews, basically what this does is put the review back in pending until the original poster re-confirms. I know for a fact there are several poor reviews in “limbo” -Do a LinkedIn search and speak to previous employees of you are considering employment here.

Pros

You get a new laptop, and a balloon when you are hired

Cons

Worked my tail off, went above and beyond, and in the end my work and devotion went completely unnoticed. The higher management treated me as if I was beneath them, and I still did my job with a smile and a positive attitude. When I was let go, I understood that my dedication, my diligence was completely disregarded. I was given reasons for my termination that were not even part of my daily responsibilities. HR makes you believe that you are important and wanted upon hiring, but once you start working for the company it is very clear that you have entered a very corporate work environment, where you just another cog in the wheel.

Pros

Nice office...... and ummm- not a single thing else.

Cons

Leadership is dreadful. If you search the word "cons" in any dictionary you'd probably see a big picture of the entire Ownbackup leadership team. Management gossips about employees with other employees and they're pretty unapologetic about it. There is hardly opportunity for growth for anyone who isn't Jewish. I've seen it with my own two God given eyes! On the flipside, if you're willing to pucker up for lots of gluteus maximus then that might help you. The "culture" is handicapped and it's as simple as that. Nothing more nothing less. Oh and be wary of the "5 star reviews" that were most likely written by someone on their marketing team. The bottom line is that Ownbackup isn't a good place to work- you will hate it after two months, three months tops. If you want to hate your job- apply here!! PS: I gave one star because I couldn't put zero stars and that's what they deserve. Zero stars.
