Pros

the culture at Acast is amazing everyone is super friendly and they truly prioritize making lasting connections.

Cons

Lack of vision: As our industry continues to evolve at high speed, there is a significant opportunity for us to refine and more clearly articulate our long-term strategic vision. A well-defined market position, communicated consistently, would empower all teams to align on the same goals and execute with greater confidence. Techical inexperience: To help our team scale and develop new skills, we would benefit from a more structured approach to technical training. I'd like to explore ways we can better support our managers by providing them with the resources or "train-the-trainer" programs needed to effectively transfer their technical knowledge to the wider team. Lack of documentation: Our lack of consistent documentation makes onboarding and learning new processes very difficult. A lot of information isn't written down, which creates a high-risk "key-person dependency" and could cause serious setbacks for the company if that person were to leave. global company structure: Our current global leadership structure seems to try to apply the same strategy across all markets. This often leads to inconsistencies because what works in one region doesn't necessarily work in another. We would benefit from a more flexible model that allows for more regional autonomy.

Pros

- remote work - company has achieved product market fit so if you're interested in working in podcasting you'll be able to work with a variety of clients varying in account size - if you're someone that enjoys autonomy you'll have the opportunity to carve your own path

Cons

- there was a lack of transparency and clarity from the executive team about the goals and direction of the company making it hard to plan and strategize future initiatives - lack of visibility across teams - so it was really hard to follow what product launches and updates were coming down the pipeline - departments often worked in silos so it often felt like members of the sales team were tasked with being reactive rather than proactive, causing members of the team to have limited time to strategize on how they could foster client relationships and effectively grow their accounts - lack of sales and career development trainings and/or programs so everyone was pretty much figuring out their own way to get things done
