Pros

Hit or Miss - All the good people are gone now :(

Cons

Hit or Miss - All the good people are gone now :( Oh how lucky I moved out before this all unfolded.. I am sorry for the ones that got impacted by multiple rounds of lay-offs. The management is still trying to figure it out at everyone else's expense. Definitely not a place to grow your career... unless you are in the newly created revenue team, I hear... For the folks still at this place: I feel bad for you.. Find your next job! Don't let your passion dissipate.. For folks considering joining this place: Even if you don't have any other job at this time, you might be better off spending more time searching for that job! It would take your career for a tail-spin, especially with these lay-offs or (badly managed) "pivots" as they call it... It is just a matter of time before the cookie crumbles...

Horrible Start-Up

Pros

There aren't any Pros that come to mind.

Cons

So many Cons, where to start... Management/Leadership doesn't lead or invest in their employee's career growth, you never get feedback or direction, and you never know where you stand. They are clueless when it comes to marketing, and there are so many more Cons I could be here all night. I will mention that they had no trouble breaking several California employment laws, so if they are cavalier about not abiding by employment laws, what else are they capable of? Also, their cheesy "canned" responses to the negative reviews here on Glassdoor are literally a joke. They are so disingenuous---hard to read. Yuck.

Pros

There used to be many, but not anymore!

Cons

After a first round of terminations, the Monday before Thanksgiving, they promised there would be no more. They left folks with a very meager severance and some without visas. Then, two-three weeks before end of year, they decided to cancel all bonuses due to a lack of sales. Always read the small print on your agreements, apparently Zinier could change the terms of the bonus whenever they wanted - even at the 11th hour. Finally, Early January, they terminated another large group of employees. Again, minimal severance. They appoint a new CEO, the former Chief Business Officer, and it's back to business as usual! We all know the start-up risks, but this is a severe exception to the norm.
