Cool tech and opportunity, poor execution from being ego-driven, high stress - Anonymous employee Dosh Employee Review

Dosh behaves like an ego-driven company. It feels like there's a huge gap between individual contributors and management, like there's two versions of reality. Bad things about Dosh: -Weak product management. The PMs seem to lack knowledge of the architecture & data of their products, and the roadmap is never executed on. Feature/product releases often break things & struggle to meet initial requirements. -Archaic view of data. The data is messy, which is normal. Dosh appears to refuse investing in consuming its own data, which is not normal for a company claiming to be data-driven. Dosh still seems to struggle with basic dashboarding for each of its functions. It makes stakeholders jobs much harder, especially sales & biz dev who get nearly no support whatsoever. There are no advanced analytics or data science happening at Dosh. Not even anything close. Probably the most stressful & least productive part of the company. -employees who have differing opinions are forced out of the company. zero emphasis on constructive feedback or conflict resolution in the company. Extremely high turnover (both firings & people leaving). Multiple VPs have left the company within the last couple of months. Feels like the attitude is "get in line or else". -Toxic culture. Merit is not valued near as much as appearance. If corporate politics are like the monarchy system, then Dosh's politics are like the survivor reality show. Stakeholders are consistently lied to about their roadmaps, to the point where no one believes them anymore. -Sales & biz dev are constantly talked bad about and blamed for company struggles. They severely lack support from data and have little to nothing to show potential clients. Probably the hardest job in the company. -Marketing seems to be on a tight leash. Company believes in eating its own dog food to eliminate wasted ad spend, which apparently means Dosh cannot advertise at all. -There are questionable ethics when it comes to interpreting data. People seem to look for stories they can tell rather than objectively view what the data means. Revenue reporting seems very unethical and feels dishonest. -Remote work is not near as tolerated anymore. The expectation is "butts in seats". -The office is in Bee Cave. It's quite a commute. In general, if you are a Data/Analytics, Sales, or Marketing professional, I recommend you stay far, far away from Dosh. You will find yourself in an impossible position all the time.
