Vantaggi
- Some very smart and talented people across all departments, trying to create something special and make a difference. - The market opportunity is incredible, if the company can execute to plan. - Great product portfolio. Very interesting technology which allows you to solve interesting and challenging problems in the market. - Food (snacks / the odd lunch) and drinks are provided free of charge. - Still the potential to IPO in the future, even if they are now at Series G funding.
Svantaggi
- Lots of politics for such a small company, which leads to a very toxic working environment. - Many tenured and experienced employees are jumping ship. Poor staff retention rates, especially in Marketing. - Work life balance is difficult to maintain, with long hours and an expectation to be available 24/7. - Not a lot of team work. Often feel stretched well beyond your capabilities, especially as you have to pick up the slack from the many ‘deadwood’ employees. - Leadership tends to be weak, inexperienced and hypocritical. They do not trust their employees and like to micromanage. Quick to criticize when things go wrong.
