Pros

Free lunch and work from home day(s)

Cons

Overall the executive team has terrible communication skills. Everyone is so passive aggressive and when asked to do a project, directions are very vague. This often led to not understanding FULLY what is being asked of you. Most of the time nothing ever got pushed through the pipeline due to lack of feedback and again....direction. For the most part, you never knew if the CRO was coming or going due to her sketchy behavior. Everyone under her was either severely stressed or just overall unhappy. Employees are hired and then fired within a year (because they're not quote on quote "a good fit")so keep your options open. Lineate has the potential to be a great place, however, this will never happen if the executive team doesn't change.

Pros

Office space in a WeWork and free lunch on Thursdays where they discuss company goals. Good flex hours and work/ life balance.

Cons

There is an obvious divide between the Russian corporate culture in the Omsk office and the NY office culture. The former is friendly and productive. The latter is a disjointed culture where sales and marketing seems distant from the engineering side and communication is spotty, passive aggressive and often mixed up. There is no on-boarding help and it's hard to figure out what the company's about on your own, as it's frowned upon to ask others outside your team for help. Fake transparency with subordinates and the division of labor isn't well spread out. As with any startup, there is a lot of change but the change here seems to be sprung upon the employees more often than usual without an explanation.
