Pros

CEO has big plans and big dreams and you can tell he is sincere. And there are some really great hardworking people at Acast that make the days better. The vision of the company is great, and the values, when followed are a great pillow to rest on.

Cons

There is a cloud of people working underneath the highest management, and they have a personal approach of making people feel less than their worth. So many people are miserable and looking over their shoulders because they worry that the target will be on them next. Some people can get away with anything. Some people cannot. And you will not know which one you are until it is too late. You are told that you can raise issues but are reprimanded when you do.

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.
