This Company Views Employees as Disposable.

Pros

The only real asset is that our technology is truly cutting-edge, and our customers recognize its value.

Cons

Despite what may look good from the outside, this company treats its employees like slaves, demanding excessive sacrifice for minimal return. 1. Unfair Compensation and Excessive Workload Compensation: Salaries are ridiculously low, and equity is practically non-existent. This clearly shows the company has no intention of providing fair compensation for the work done. Workload: Quotas are abnormally high, and the workload is not properly distributed. The resulting excessive burden and responsibility placed on individuals make it nearly impossible for employees with families to fulfill their domestic obligations. 2. Efforts Are Not Rewarded: Working hard and achieving good performance makes no difference. We are simply expected to continue performing like slaves, with no real expectation of appropriate rewards or advancement. 3. Lack of Organizational Structure and Role Clarity: The internal organization is poorly structured, making it difficult to ascertain the exact position and responsibilities (R and R) of the people we interact with. The blanket term 'GTM' seems intended to make employees work across all boundaries (Sales, Marketing, etc.) without having to properly compensate them for the expanded scope. 4. Untrustworthy Leadership: Leadership constantly tells compelling stories but never honors the promises made to either the employees or the customers. Growth based on mutual trust is impossible here. The culture here is one where dissent is met with the ultimatum: 'If you don't like it, then leave.' More disturbingly, this often escalates into the reality of 'We will force you out'‘, with threats and actual termination actions being a common occurrence This company intends to consume and burn you out as a disposable resource, not grow with you. I strongly recommend seeking out other opportunities. I plan to escape as soon as a good chance arises.

Pros

Great product, salary above average.

Cons

Awfully immature leadership. Hours are long with little reward or recognition. Leadership thinks being part of ElevenLabs is a reward on itself, so don't you dare ask for extra shares or any kind of reward for exceeding your targets, this is a startup. The culture is terrible. All remote team with siloed communication. ElevenLabs operates on need to know basis, so it's extra difficult to properly sell. The team is either over hyped or disgusted at what is going on. People are summarily dismissed with no warning or conversation with the rest of the team. No career growth unless leadership likes you. Leadership likes you if you agree with them and work 70 hours a week.

Pros

Product is doing well and it's ridiculously easy to find talent interested in the team

Cons

The whole team believes dying for ElevenLabs is the only possible route. Only hire from "thE BesT UniSS" (which is like.. 3), whole countries considered "lazy", people with kids considered "too interested in having a life". 5 recruiters were fired before the end of their probation, and more keep on being fired. They have no idea what they're doing but are so convinced they are right People are lowballed if they don't negotiate

Thank you for the time you put into writing this. The picture you describe is hard to read, and not the experience we want any recruiter to walk away with after their first year here. What you describe is not the team or the company we want to be. Hearing this from a former recruiter, with this level of detail and pain in the framing, is feedback that needs to be heard, not skimmed. What you have raised deserves more than a public reply can offer. If you would be open to a conversation about your time, we would value it. We appreciate the depth of what you have shared.
