Pros
Most employees are exceptional and collaborative. Decent benefits including yearly travel stipend to use on their products and monthly cell phone reimbursement.
Cons
Tech integration with parent company has resulted in most employees being forced to work in multiple time zones resulting in burn out and poor work/life balance with concerns of layoffs for duplicate roles in the future. A new enterprise account management team was created in 2022 and the leaders of this team lack the basic knowledge to effectively manage the partners under their portfolio. As a result of hiring these leaders externally with no company knowledge, this team has single-handedly killed the culture many before them worked so hard to build, including, but certainly not limited to, enabling growth from within their team, women empowering other women, accepting constructive feedback from their employees, and making diverse hires. If you are not a white woman, your work will not be valued and the only choices are to become a "Yes-person" or risk losing your job. The microagressions from the leaders of this team included microinsults, microinvalidations, and their personal favorite, microexclusions. They embody the classic character traits of 'the mean girls that peaked in High School' and now only obtain their happiness by belittling and intimidation. One of the leaders of this team has never managed people and it is obvious in the leadership style they have chosen - a dictatorship. They speak over individuals during meetings and turn down alternative solutions when they do not like who has pitched them. Most importantly, they have received multiple complaints about their leadership style from multi-million dollar a year revenue generating partners, specifically sharing with Senior Leaders their dissatisfaction with her management because "she is unable to bring anything new to the partnership" and "she is only good at reiterating things smarter people in the room have already said". However, instead of addressing this, the senior leaders of the company have chosen to shield the rest of the company from this reality in an effort to hide their poor hiring decision with this individual. A hiring decision that was awarded without merit, to a personal friend of the head leader of the company, and without the opportunity for others to apply/interview, completely contradicting the companies narrative of fair hiring practices. The company used to encourage mentorship, growth from within, diversity, equity, inclusion, and a healthy work/life balance. Regretfully, these are no longer a priority and have been devalued in the past year.
