Vantaggi

There are pockets of very kind, generous, intelligent people dedicated to the mission of the company. Unfortunately most of these people are undervalued and are rarely recognized if they aren't in sales and making their numbers.

Svantaggi

There are many: - First time CEO was hired in 2019 and his inexperience shows BIGTIME. He talks a good game but moves like an EMPTY SUIT. Feels like he's at the company for a quick flip, exit and payday. - Very TOXIC environment created by the CEO and CRO -- heavy meetings culture, undue stress imposed through unrealistic deadlines and micromanaging, a huge emphasis is placed on sales performance at the expense of all else. The management team presents a very confusing, non-transparent message on the company's direction. - Its very easy to see that the CEO favors sales especially the CRO (who is a mercenary sales leader). The CRO has been given carte blanche to run sales however he wants - During several town halls both the CEO and CRO explicitly said there would be no layoffs in Talent despite the product line being impacted by COVID. In fact, both gave the impression the Talent business was doing well on several occasions. The CRO was cheering us on as the quarter went on only to cut all of us suddenly one week after the quarter closed. Huge disconnect with the message vs. the actions of the management team - CRO regularly shames sales staff publicly for taking a day off or a minor mistake. Its disgusting and HR knows about it and should be embarrassed to allow this to happen. - There was been a steady decline in both gender and racial diversity (almost seems intentional this is coming from a white male) in a two month period our VP Customer Success, CFO, VP of People (all people of color) were all let go. The company positioned it as they voluntarily left but this was not the case. I've notice they have all been replace by non folks of color. Again HR knows about this and should be embarrassed to allow this to happen. Diversity and inclusion is a JOKE are this company-- again this is coming from a white male perspective! - Management did not invest in the Talent product for years, did not provide any marketing support for years yet expected all of sales to make their numbers consistently. Yet all Talent sales are laid off and no one from any other dept affect?

Thank you for sharing your perspective on the company. There are many measures of diversity, and we strive for diversity in gender, race, capabilities, and more. Anytime someone leaves the company, we look at it as an opportunity to learn how we can be better as an organization. We are still actively searching for replacements for the leaders you referenced. From a recruiting perspective, we are continuing to focus on sourcing diverse candidates for all open positions. We are actively seeking feedback through surveys and open forums to improve our culture and processes, and will have specific action plans for our leadership team to work through cross-functionally to ensure Stack Overflow is a great place to work for all. The business decision impacting the Talent product was made in an effort to align our products with where our customers see the most value. While the change primarily impacted the sales team as we are no longer selling the product to new clients, we are highly appreciative of the hard work that went into the past decade to support the launch, growth, and success of the Talent products. We are continuing to work with some of those impacted to transition into other open positions, while supporting others through their transition back into the workforce. Hopefully this additional perspective is helpful in understanding some of the recent changes.
