-Company has great values that they do not embody or live by in any way shape or form
-Work life balance was atrocious. Management that started early on in the company is heavily invested in its success, and work around the clock. I routinely received emails/messages asking for something immediately as late as 11pm on a weeknight and even on multiple Saturdays/Sundays, creating the feeling that you have to work just as much.
-Unlimited PTO means nothing - I was regularly contacted while on PTO, and again after not responding to or even seeing the initial message due to my being on PTO
-Was harassed with constant work-related questions when the entire city of Austin had no power (or heat) during the February 2021 winter storm because management lived outside the city and were unaffected
-Employees are micromanaged to the point of exhaustion, resulting in a culture fearful to make a mistakes or speak out
-Every single issue that comes up must be resolved in an instant, forcing excessive, urgent collaboration with multiple teams that already have more work than they can complete in a reasonable amount of time. This typically occurred because the company scaled faster than they were capable of with band-aid solutions that broke down over time with increased growth
-Revolving door of employees making it difficult to complete projects and transfer knowledge
-Company is not completely honest with clients when issues arise. lack of transparency made it difficult to manage the overall relationship and increase business
-Blatant favoritism when it comes to promotions: there is no chance of getting promoted to more senior roles without working more than 40 hours or a departure creating an urgent need
