Vantaggi

Potential for the product to be great......if done right.

Svantaggi

How did we ever convince a company like KDT to give us $30m? Now that we have money in the bank, true colors start to shine through. Maybe current leadership is unprepared to deliver on the massive growth they committed? Fake it 'till you make it only works for so long. All I see is disorganization, lack of communication, and limited overall direction. But hey, let's throw money at it, we have $30m in the bank, remember?! At this point, I've lost most, if not all, confidence. The product still has potential but the leadership team we've put together does not seem have the vision, experience, or know-how to reach the goals they set forth. ZERO accountability. We're stuck trying to solve the same problems we had 2 years ago. Product, Marketing, Engineering, Sales. You name it. Sure, we've added some features but it's "the squeaky wheel gets the grease" as usual. COVID19 will buy them/us some time but there's an underlying pattern that most of us already see. Change that and good things will happen. Overall, the feeling I get from them and the rest of the teams is "let's hurry up and get acquired because we don't know how we're going to do this".

Vantaggi

Remote work. Flexible time off. Though that is now being scrutinized.

Svantaggi

Way too many layoffs for the age of the company and size. Can’t trust senior leadership. They wordsmith around “no large layoffs” but then begin to do small targeted layoffs as to not spook the rest of the org. We all see what’s going on. Senior leadership takes offsites every other month, yet we have no money for anything else; even team offsites. Haven’t seen the team in person in years. Seems like they are just using up the funds before this place goes under. Revolving door up top with no clear priorities. 3 CEO changes in 4 years. Major projects are pushed and engineers work long hours only for it to be cancelled. This is an incredibly common theme. Product also builds things no one asks for instead of fixing core stability and security features. The org is losing talent fast as everyone is jumping from a burning ship. Half truths and lies all the way down. Competitors are doing 10x per year compared to Automox. Product has never had a clear direction. Just way too many things to even list here….
