Pros

Used to be a great company until acquisition of mode analytics. Please ignore previous reviews. It was really good company until start of 2023 Jan. Things have drastically changed to a downfall and the stress, chaos is not worth your time joining here. Posting here for your own benefit if you are thinking of joining.

Cons

Too much cost cutting at every levels and benefits no structure and you could be layed off anytime No customer focus, everyone is running chaos and dosing fires. Plans change every week worst case, best case everymonth. No long term vision for product. Too many egomaniacs and politics for a company of this size.

Toxic

Pros

Technology is amazing, and they are driving the market away from what is traditional BI reporting.

Cons

Management is Toxic. Management was basically formed by family and friends. If you are not part of the favorites you have a target on your back and it's only a matter of time.

Effective Product, Rough Execution

Pros

The product demonstrates better than any technology I've ever seen. It is a fantastic product, no one asked for, so the key is evangelism. No one has this budgeted, no one is looking for this, and it generally isn't a "problem" to be solved. However, a really great line item for existing BI practices and is received well at the business side. Good luck on procurement!

Cons

This is a technology company focused on the NOW. Very little focus on the next few quarters or year. If there is a plan, it leads to my second biggest Con, zero communication, and even less transarency. People come and go here like a revolving door, and no one knows for weeks or months, including VP-level talent. Decisions are made and they depend heavily on rumors and conjecture to tell the story. If your efforts aren't around immediate revenue attainment, you are at risk. We are looking for our third head of Sales in 19 months.

Hello, your feedback is much appreciated. As a tech start-up, we're always trying to learn and adjust with agility, which does mean change and ambiguity. We are working on improving transparency so the whole team can be more aware of the intentionality behind the changes. We will continue to improve on this front.
