Woof... - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Fi

Fi is less a “company” than four insecure guys in a trench coat, exploiting junior talent and making arbitrary decisions behind closed doors. The hiring process was disorganized and unprofessional—and unfortunately, that turned out to be a preview. This was sold as a stable company; I observed the opposite: decisions signaling financial instability and a truly bizarre mix of micromanagement and total ignorance of team needs. Leadership titles are inflated, egos even more so. Strategy, accountability, and cohesion are mostly aspirational concepts. Shockingly juvenile for a Series B. The environment is marked by unqualified leadership posturing for relevance while underpaid, overextended junior staff keep the actual work afloat. It’s a talented team being held back by a lack of structure, maturity, and respect. Aside from hardware and CX, most of leadership are fragile and egotistical—carrying titles that don’t match their output and vying for position as a result, mistaking arrogance and micromanagement for “high standards,” and reacting defensively to feedback (as evidenced in these reviews). There’s much talk of excellence, but in practice mostly insecurity: precious with ego, careless with real passion and talent. There is genuine camaraderie and collaboration within teams, but overall this is a reactive, ego-driven workplace that confuses chaos for creativity and arrogance for standards. Ask about turnover, lol—I witnessed multiple people simply vanish. This place runs on a platitudinal mission and the easy heartstrings of “everyone loves dogs,” with its viability propped up by a job market that is, frankly, dogs***.
