Toxic Culture and Bro Leadership

Recommend
CEO approval

Pros

The product was great pre-2022 and had interesting features, the marketing team is creative in both terms of media and messaging externally.

Cons

Game of Thrones is an accurate description of how senior leaders handle issues from the top down. The culture points the finger to blame rather than establishing accountability and an operational mature mindset of improvement with fairness for all employees. One of the most glaring issues I observed over the past two years is the rampant layoffs and restructurings, which seem to occur with alarming frequency for a "growth company." I advise all potential job seekers to avoid this place, this is not a best place to work in Boston or elsewhere. Low-pay for expectations of work hours, no bonus, no 401(k) match, pressure on creating personal balance, repercussions if you are family planning, and Bro management at the top. Avoid career regret.

Poor management, lots of ego at the top

Pros

Interesting product, engineers here are generally great and amazing to work with.

Cons

Terrible C level management and extremely poor leadership. Constantly pushing others below them to make up for their incompetence. You'll always be rushed and forced to cut corners if you work here. A lot of micromanaging from c suite.
