Pros
Benefits, pay and office location are good!
Cons
Firstly, I want to start off by saying most people at this company are great, it's a good product. It’s so unfortunate that some people make it so toxic. Due to Cohere growing rapidly, they are promoting/hiring inexperienced people into leadership positions. My manager was so inexperienced in how to manage a team/department to the point where I would say it was career sabotage. I was constantly being gaslighted about events that occurred to the point where I was questioning my own sanity. If you're a leader you can act however you want at this company. - Lack of boundaries, you will be messaged outside of work hours and while you are on vacation - During my 1:1s my Manager would always start them off by talking about herself and what has happening with her that week. She would constantly complain about being over worked and stretched too thin. - The People Operations team have a weekly meeting where they go around in a circle and share what they called a “Spidey-Sense”. It’s basically a way for HR to get information on what’s happening in the company. - Diversity and Inclusion is severely lacking. When you only want to hire people from large well known companies and won’t even consider looking at a resume from people with other backgrounds, then you’re not being inclusive. Not everyone needs to come from a big name company to do a great job.
