A Dismal Tailspin of a Startup

Pros

There are some genuinely excellent people at this company with good hearts and great work ethics. Snacks are usually stocked and free lunches on a monthly basis. Some fun company outings and games to play in the office.

Cons

Where do I start? This company loves to make loose promises. They promise their software will improve and their clients will be happy - this never happens. They promise their employees large bonuses, raises, and stock options - those things never come to fruition. The company is continually setting up their clients and employees for disappointment when none of their tall tales actually come true. Word of advice... if you are considering joining this hot mess, get everything you’re “promised” in writing. The CEO and upper management avoid direct answers like the plague. Legitimate questions such as “what about our bonuses?” and “where is this company headed?” are met with ridiculous, ambiguous answers that leave everyone in the dark. Absolutely zero transparency as to what’s really going on - causing distrust and disloyalty from the staff. The department heads run around with unchecked power and egos. Employees who are honestly unfit to manage anyone simply add “Director” or “Manager” to their title and act as though they’ve earned it. HR pulls policies out of thin air and makes/breaks rules on the fly. Frequent inappropriate comments and language from the CEO and upper level management. As an employee, you spend your time wondering “How a company can possibly function like this?” The answer is simple, it doesn’t. If this doesn’t sound bad enough, there is no job security. One day you’re chatting with a co-worker, the next you get an email from HR letting the staff know “today is his/her last day and we wish them all the best.” Talented, hard working employees are laid off without reason while the loudest mouths in the room are allowed to run a muck.

Pros

1. Interesting technical and organisational challenges. 2. A lot of math, statistics and big data handling and visualization. 3. Kinda startup - relatively open to a new ideas, technologies, designs, etc. 4. Smart, talented and friendly people to work with. Amazing multicultural environment. 5. Good salary and perks.

Cons

1. Almost no processes - neither in software development, nor in administrative area and carrier development. No requirements are gathered and there are no product owners, so nobody really knows how the things work and what should be done. 2. Bad management - the people from sales department give unreal promises to the customers without any communication with the developers, then the development managers push you hard to try to satisfy these unreal expectations. They don't cate about your opinion (though they say it differenty) and estimations. 3. Too many personal is being put into professional relations. 4. Management is rude sometimes. 5. A tons of micromanagement. 6. No clear path to grow your carrier. 7. Working with the casinos could be a personal probalem for someone.
