Vantaggi

The Human Resources team is exceptional, and the company boasts a plethora of highly skilled engineers and managers. A wide array of technologies are utilized here, presenting numerous exciting engineering challenges.

Svantaggi

The CEO's leadership is detrimentally affecting the company. His self-perception as a figure akin to Steve Jobs is used as a reason for his fluctuating temperament, overbearing demeanor, and regular humiliation of staff. His decision-making skills are questionable, and his inability to lead the business effectively has led to the team being entirely replaced twice within the year. Despite his lack of experience and knowledge, he insists on being part of every architectural decision, leading to process blockages, blame-shifting, and often unnecessary conflict with engineers. Delays in promised pay raises are a recurring issue, leading many engineers to seek employment elsewhere after months of waiting. If, despite these reviews, you still decide to work under CEO Fred Jin, it is recommended that you negotiate a higher initial salary to offset the stress that could potentially be caused by this environment. Avoid falling into the common trap of accepting lower pay with the promise of a substantial raise, as these promises are frequently unfulfilled.

Vantaggi

Nothing. Biggest mistake in my career to accept Cere Network's offer.

Svantaggi

During a couple of weeks at Cere Network, it became clear that the company is highly dysfunctional, with little to no progress made over the past few years. There is no product-market fit and no structured approach to product discovery. Everyone at Cere Network reports directly to the founder and CEO/CTPO, Fred Jin, whose overbearing and difficult management style makes collaboration extremely challenging. The company could benefit greatly if employees were given more autonomy and there was new leadership. The interview process was also a negative experience, with interviewers either not showing up or arriving late without offering an apology. Promises made during the interview were disregarded once the job began.

Vantaggi

Paid on time every month.

Svantaggi

Cere Network has a distinctly challenging work environment, largely shaped by Fred Jin (the CEO) with his intense and at times, overbearing leadership style. His commitment to the company is undeniable, but the execution seems questionable. Over three years there have been zero tangible results. No products, customers, or significant achievements. They urgently need leadership changes.
