World class team and company - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Formant

Opportunities at Formant are absolute endless. There's so much that can be accomplished here. Everything we do feels like we're on the bleeding edge. If you're looking for a challenge, this is your place. Upper management has always been open to conversations, feedback and criticism. I really appreciate the "open door" policy from them. I really feel like I can voice my concerns and they'll be heard. The benefits are decent and getting better every year. I'm excited to see what's on the horizon as far as that goes.

Lots of growing pains. Tons of opportunity for process improvements. Benefits are lacking a bit. No 401k match. Need mental health benefits. Feels like we could double our resources and still not get everything done. Need to be better about solving problems for 99% of our customers instead of the 1%. Less feature creep.

Cool product that is making waves in an exciting industry. Most of the team is brilliant and great to work with. Benefits are not the best but keep improving.

It's comic irony for a company that works with robots: employees are seen as resources to be squeezed as much as possible and then disposed of when it's convenient. The leadership claims to care about the team's happiness and well-being, but in reality, their (unreasonable) contract obligations and revenue goals come before everything else. They will work you around the clock (weekends, holidays, through your "PTO"), thank you for your help, and then throw you off the ship so you can't share in their success. There is simply no company culture or camaraderie. Everyone is constantly behind on fighting their individual fires, and getting help with something is like pulling teeth. It feels like something is always broken and it's always crisis mode. Intra-team interactions are positive and lighthearted for the most part, but deep down one gets the sense that no one is really having a good time.
