Pros

There's genuinely very little positive about what Syndio has evolved into. They at one point in time had a great team but a majority of that team has been let go or fled for good reasons. There's a possibility that a few people there actually still want to make the world a better place with a helpful product but the hard pivot into AI makes that impossible. At the very least the people they laid off were given a good severance package.

Cons

Incredibly top heavy, especially now after the layoffs. A lot of top level managers/c-suite are incapable of thinking before acting, whether it be decisions with employees or the product. This meant a majority of projects went unfinished or unreleased. Considering the product they sell uses real data to determine results its a little funny they decided to go so hard into unproven AI. They went as far as pushing it onto workers who actively brought up concerns with the technology (with no real answers to said concerns), using it as a sudden requirement for the job.

Pros

Decent benefits and great coworkers

Cons

A revolving doo culture with annual layoffs. In the entire time I've been here, this company has managed to churn through hundreds of employees. Not a great look for an equity based company.

Pros

Some individual team members were genuinely trying their best, but even they were clearly struggling against the constant chaos.

Cons

• There were essentially no processes in place , making every task a guessing game but ownership and responsibility. • Requests came in from multiple directions and were frequently lost due to lack of communication and clarity. • Critical issues often went unnoticed for weeks because everyone assumed someone else was handling them. • Simple work took far longer than necessary because time was wasted trying to figure out basic workflows. • Nothing was documented or standardized, forcing employees to restart from scratch every day. • The operation was so disorganized that individual skill and effort had little impact against broken systems.
