A Ruined Experience

Pros

Flexible working arrangements Great colleagues Fun atmosphere Nice offices

Cons

The worst line manager I've ever had the displeasure of working with in my life. Narcissistic, toxic and bullying behaviour that is left unchecked by senior management. Started out with 7 people in his team, now left with 2 as they've either left the company or changed roles. My high standard of performance was ignored or suppressed. Continually received mixed messages on what I should be doing and the internal politics at higher levels is astounding and childish. I have never been treated so badly in my life. Amazing how one person can ruin an entire experience.

I want to acknowledge the strength of feeling I read your message. It feels like you have “missed out” (I want to say “cheated”) on the opportunity and expectation of a great career experience. I am personally saddened to read this. I would encourage you to reach out to me in confidence so I can look into your particular situation. With the launch of our culture canvas in EMEA recently our goal is to empower EVERYONE to grow in a culture of Psychological safety so we avoid anything like this in the future. I sincerely hope you are able to move on from this experience positively. Dclement@pax8.com

Sales culture dying

Pros

Used to be a great place to work where people were appreciated and knew what they had to do to be successful. Nice office environments and there are some excellent members of the team.

Cons

Completely unrealistic targets, toxic and out of touch senior leadership, expectations that are unfair, awful communication. No honest feedback wanted, no retainment strategy for partners or employees. False promises made all the time. HR provides employees with no support. Big losses from the sales team likely this year.

Chaos

Pros

Nice office, coworkers are great, company social events, free coffee, opportunities for learning, flexible working

Cons

Under market pay, leadership is a boys club who got their positions because they were friends with someone else in power rather than being qualified and competent in their position, no unified structure and unclear role requirements - chaos from the moment you start work to the moment you leave. You are easily replaceable to this company, do not believe that they actually care about you as an employee

Thank you for leaving a review. We value feedback even when it is tough to hear. Pax8 is experiencing the natural growing pains of a successful start-up in hyper-growth mode. That said, our employee experience is a critical factor to our future success so your perspective is important. I'm glad to hear that you like your co-workers and work-life balance. We appreciate the candid feedback.
