Built on Burnout, Not on People - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Cirrus Systems

The People: This is genuinely the best part of working here. The "no ego" rule is actually followed. You are working with smart, driven people who want to win together. Intentional Culture: A lot of companies put values on the wall and ignore them. Leadership here genuinely tries to live by them. They aren't perfect, but when they mess up, they usually own it and try to fix it. Impact: Because we are in growth mode, you get to touch a lot of things. You aren't just a cog in a wheel; you can see how your work directly hits the revenue goals. Transparency: The All-Hands meetings and Open Office Hours are actually useful. Leadership shares the good, the bad, and the ugly, which builds a lot of trust.

Growing Pains: If you need a playbook for everything, you will hate it here. Processes break constantly because we outgrow them every 6 months. You have to be okay with ambiguity and building the plane while flying it. Work-Life Balance Fluctuates: It’s not a 9-to-5 "punch the clock" place. There are sprints where we are grinding to hit a launch or a quarterly goal. It’s manageable, but you have to be good at setting your own boundaries. Communication Silos: As we've gotten bigger, cross-functional communication has gotten harder. We are working on it, but it's a friction point.

Many of the sales team are great people.

Leadership is unprofessional and does not put the customer anywhere on the list of priorities. Prices change frequently and without notifying the sales team. Zero transparency. People disappear and there is no accountability. No source of truth. Partners quit because they don’t get paid. Projects are cancelled. High turnover. Absent character values.
