Avoid at all cost. Toxic.

Pros

None. Tried very hard to think of something positive but sadly couldn't.

Cons

CEO is very disrespectful to its employees. He is a very capricious and emotional person; he always brings his emotions to work. He has never worked for someone before so he does not know what it takes to be a leader, let alone a good leader. Work environment is toxic; creates constant fear in the air. Don't waste your time or energy here.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review on Glassdoor. It is important for us to hear what we are doing well and what we need to improve upon. We are not used to receiving feedback that is so negative, and I'm not happy to hear that your experience working here has been unsatisfactory. Respect is one of the core values of Cuseum, and we make this value crystal clear during the first day of onboarding when reviewing our company’s culture code with each new member of the team. We treat others how we wish to be treated and always attempt to go above and beyond for our teammates, customers, and partners. I do acknowledge that while working at a startup, especially during a time of uncertainty due to the pandemic, not every moment is guaranteed to be smooth sailing and that there were some difficult decisions that needed to be made which may have directly affected you. But that said, respect, courtesy, and positivity are always a part of our culture, outlook, and rhythm here at Cuseum. As CEO, my door is always up to every member of my team. I frequently host one-on-one and feedback sessions and provide spaces for anonymous feedback about various aspects of the company’s culture, strengths, weaknesses, and more. We also host company-wide review meetings (State of the Company) each and every quarter, where team members are encouraged to provide fully anonymous reviews and feedback on the company, the management team, culture, product, and trajectory. I’m pleased to report that feedback from these surveys indicates that our company culture is positive, supportive, and inclusive, and feedback from recent employee exit interviews echo that same sentiment. As CEO, respect is a value that I’ve been personally committed to instilling in the company culture since day #1. On any account, it sounds like you had a very different experience at Cuseum and with me in particular, and I’d welcome the opportunity to hear more about your specific encounters, especially as they are unlike the feedback I receive from my team. My email is brendan@cuseum.com, and my door is always open. Thank you, Brendan Ciecko CEO & Founder

Pros

it's a great place to work if you need no contact with your superiors or work best alone.

Cons

Management is very detached from daily operations and does not share a view of the future or guiding principles, they also do not have a leadership principle of the company, so you will not receive feedback or constructive criticism.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review on Glassdoor. We always appreciate feedback from past and present members of our team, so thank you for sharing your experience with us as we continually strive to improve our workplace environment. At Cuseum, fostering a collaborative and supportive culture is paramount to our success. Members of the management team, myself included, are highly involved in the day-to-day operations and are frequently rolling-up their sleeves to work with team members, customers, and partners. Additionally, the company has a well-established culture of frequent communication, constructive feedback, and coaching. This is demonstrated in the company's weekly all hands meetings, daily stand-ups, end of week retrospectives, one-on-one pulse sessions where feedback is exchanged and support is provided. Your feedback suggests a departure from the positive experiences shared by many members of our team. I am genuinely interested in learning more about your specific experience, particularly regarding your interactions with your manager. Your perspective can provide valuable insights that will help us address any areas for improvement. Please feel free to reach out to me directly at brendan@cuseum.com. Your voice matters, and I am here to listen with an open mind and a commitment to understanding your perspective. Thank you, Brendan Ciecko CEO & Founder

Great start-up

Pros

Solid team with a strong work ethic in an environment with a handful of main competitors - you get to learn a lot about the product and have direct input with the VP and CEO.

Cons

Growing pains that come with every SaaS startup - decisions can change from a day to the next, you might feel a bit rushed to adapt. Since the main market is small I’m unsure about long term performance for the company, but they’re already expanding for solve for that.
