Pros
- free lunch everyday until the festival (so you don’t go out and keep working) - good location, currently located in the financial district - transparent with progress/ numbers - majority of employees are type A players, high intensity (would recommend to diversify employees)
Cons
- initially sounds like a fantastic company, but once you’re in you realize how unstructured, chaotic, and selfish the leadership team is - misleads and releases false information to the public to make it seem like this tech fest is in high demand...when in reality we are well below target and not meeting expectations - fair warning: the job you sign up for is not the job you will be doing. 95% of employees end up being pressured by leadership team to change roles based on their needs, has absolutely no regard or care to your professional growth or career. - this event is a one hit wonder (2017), and sets unrealistic numbers for the team to achieve. They publicly state they project 10,000 attendees, false, completely false. - the majority of employees are unhappy and overly stressed out - large number of employees are looking for the next opportunity while working here - expect set timelines for deliverables to be delayed or forgotten about until it becomes a ‘red flag’ - high stress environment, walk on egg shells, feels like everyone has scatter brains - unnecessary DAILY standups and 3 hours long bi-weekly all hands meeting (waste of time and productivity) - this company is the biggest catfish STAY AWAY!!!!!
