Svantaggi
Well...they just laid off half the company so that should tell you that growth is no longer an initiative. The skeleton crew that is left is mainly family members and friends of the founding employees. With that, instability is a common occurrence at the company. Not just "Oh, we are a startup, startups are unpredictable" instability, but real life craziness. Some days are fantastic, others are straight up miserable There is a definite Frat Boy mentality, from the bottom to the top. As a woman working on the 2nd floor, this was especially prevalent.
