Pros

The people are great. They are so many talented people in every department. There are people here I’d consider to be geniuses in their field, but they’re so humble you’d never know it until you saw their work. There was a new CEO recently who really seems committed to wrestling Pavlov into a more approachable place to be from the office to the culture to better work-life balance. They encourage everyone to take the time to learn. There’s no fear of knowledge gaps here. People love to hear “I don’t know” so they can sit down and learn with you.

Cons

Upper management demands the new and shiny instead of addressing the severe ongoing issues which has accrued over several years of mismanagement and chaotic directives from leadership. They need to listen more to the entire team instead of a few noticeable individuals. Oftentimes, we will be told to work on a project. We invest a lot of time into research, planning, requirements gathering, and learning new skills. Then after a few days of work, the entire project will be cancelled by upper management. This happens on a regular enough basis to have generated a saying among employees of all departments.

Middle Management will drive you to drink

Pros

You get to work with likeminded professionals with advanced technical skill sets that will rapidly increase your knowledge if you are willing to learn! Really, the staff are a great bunch of people. (Mostly) Everyone is kind and welcoming to everyone!

Cons

About a year ago the company was acquired by a foreign investor. The new CEO is a solid person who many believe in, but the new middle management is killing departments. Middle management telling staff to hide things from other people in the same department which is a sign of rot from the inside. Teams are built on communication but insecure managers horde things to make themselves feel important, which is actively happening. Middle management is allowed to YELL at their staff to make them almost cry when something outside of their control happens with ZERO repercussions while other management watch it happen. If you want to be treated like crap but get a paycheck, come to Pavlov! If you review GlassDoor over the past year you will see many glowing reviews of Pavlov! This is the massive marketing department being paid to improve their online presence. Don't be fooled. these are employees paid to trick you.
