Vantaggi

Remote first culture. Excellent colleagues and peers. Products that (used to) make a difference.

Svantaggi

The CEO cannot prioritize and/or focus. He is an engineer and just wants to try the latest cool toys and technologies rather than focus on delivering what customers want. He routinely shows off technical projects/ideas he has been working on that make one think "Why the hell are you spending time on this?! Why aren't you meeting with customers to understand their needs, developing clear cohesive strategies, and communicating with your employees?! Ya know... CEO responsibilities?!" With his blessing, the company spent tons of time and resources on a pet project that after 3 years is still nowhere near providing any return on investment. Even while the company has multiple rounds of layoffs and tells employees raises are unlikely, they still are spending money on this pet project?! Furthermore, there is zero accountability for the CEO. He screws up, his ideas don't yield the expected results or benefits for the company and yet nothing happens to his job!

Vantaggi

The product is fundamentally good. The cause is fundamentally good. The people you work with directly are great. Because the consumers are primarily government entities it is a very stable business model.

Svantaggi

Management has no respect or concern for people who work here. Employees are disposable and there has been at least one layoff each year for the past three years. This usually is presented as “we didn’t have the right team” or “plans didn’t work out” and the usual cut and paste explanations. In spite of being told the company is very profitable, raises did not happen for a while and the most recent one is barely a cost of living adjustment. Promotions have also not happened and many people are doing a different more senior role with the title they started with during the pandemic era hiring boom. Senior leadership is detached, unaware of projects in flight, and unfamiliar with the products to the point they will suggest new initiatives that are for things we already have. Most of them come from very large companies and try to act as if we have the same headcount, resources, and consumer base as a multinational B2C and are seemingly confused and unhappy when things don’t work out the way they expected.
