Pros

We aspire to be the best company that any of our people ever work for and that any of our clients ever do business with. Like any aspiration, there is still plenty of work to make it a reality. We have a strong vision, exceptional employees, a phenomenal product, a client list that includes some of the best and most valuable companies in the world. We are addressing a huge and exciting market opportunity, grew over 75% last year and will soon be profitable. We have a strong set of investors that fully support MomentFeed and have the assets to back us up. We are guided by a core set of values - excellence, partnership, entrepreneurship and authenticity. It is this last value, authenticity, that motivated me to write this. A recent set of reviews by former employees does not feel like an authentic representation of the experience of the majority of existing and former MomentFeed employees.

Cons

While our growth has been strongly up and to the right, that doesn't mean we don't experience both peaks and deep valleys. We are leading the creation of a new form of marketing which requires continuous innovation and adaptation. While we try to develop systems, process and people to handle our rapid growth, we don't always get that right and have to work harder until we fill the gap. Working for a values driven company sounds great but if people don't measure up to or exhibit those values, their experience won't be very positive.

Pros

- Easily accessible leadership. Slack is used to great effect giving transparency into leadership team debates and functional teams. - Thoughtful responses to challenges. We won't blow up the business model or product roadmap for the sake of an edge-case sale. - Great cross-functional collaboration. Good example set by a clearly aligned leadership team who will all tell you the same company goals. - CEO is incredibly smart, credible, has had successful liquidity events before. Isn't afraid to get highly technical one minute and strategic the next. Kudos. - New ideas and innovation are welcomed. Goals are organized. Business cases are scrutinized. All positives.

Cons

- Our market is crowded and has gotten more commoditized over time. This leads to a lot of feature/price war threads. Strong product marketing and coherent, audience relevant messaging are crucially required to be successful. Then, you need strong training programs in place to make sure all teams are armed as best as possible otherwise there will be a high chance of failure and turnover especially in CSM and AE roles which has historically been an issue. - Product needs to deliver on its roadmap to stay competitive AND give us clear differentiators to win and retain clients. I have full confidence in that team but it's a very hard job when so much of your solution is dependent on publishers like Google, Apple, Facebook etc. who have a 10X+ bigger dev team than you and strategic interest in standardizing access to their platforms in order to enable as much adoption (and revenue) as possible for themselves.
