Pros

• The work itself is interesting, and there is real potential in what the company is building • Some colleagues are talented, dedicated, and genuinely collaborative • There are moments where the mission feels meaningful

Cons

• Leadership at the manager level and above lacks direction - no clear team strategy is communicated or executed • Promises made during hiring (including around growth and promotion) were not honored, with no transparency or follow-up • Time management from leadership is poor, which creates confusion and inefficiency across the team • Unclear growth progression - no formal review process and other teams get promoted with no true transparency on why them and not others • When things go wrong, accountability flows down to the team rather than up to management where the issues seem to reside • High turnover • Upward feedback received defensively, ignored, or dismissed
