Pros
trauma bonding with coworkers . One free weighted blanket if you work there for six months and they don’t forget …..
Cons
-company isn’t actually based out of the US (like they say) but Dubai, and they employ almost no people in the US. Dubai employees are expected to work incredibly long hours and intensely monitored for performance, and remote/international employees are constantly suspected of being lazy/inefficient -upper management positions held by family members who don’t hold each other to ethical or professional standards -company’s overarching vision and goals dramatically change constantly, as do expectations for individual employee performance -employees consistently expected to take on responsibilities outside of job description/role without additional compensation “because it’s a startup” -upper management thinks HR reps are a waste of moneyso doesn’t employ any. Means there is no point person to communicate with about benefits or compensation, nobody to report to if an HR/interpersonal issue happen (like management verbally abusing employees in meetings), and no clear policies of any kind. -company’s public facing values (“sustainability” and “mental health”) are nowhere to be seen in internal operations -everything is disorganized and upper management constantly talks about improving “processes”, but that’s not actually possible if you change your mind constantly and don’t trust your employees or allow them to make autonomous decisions
