Great Work-Life Balance with a Supportive Management Team! - Senior Software Engineer Touchcast Employee Review

Can be stressful, but management genuinely cares about employees and goes to great lengths to keep them at the firm.

Typical startup life, can be hectic, chaotic and have busy seasons with urgent turnarounds.

The talent at Touchcast is absolutely amazing. There are dedicated team members who put in much more that what is expected on a day to day basis and have proven to pivot and shift into new ideas and company focus. Touchcast is a 100% remote, global company, providing the flexibility to perform your work practically anywhere.

There is a systemic focus issue with Touchcast and finding their identity. The leadership team has great visions and wants to be at the forefront of innovation, however this lacks product identity, in turn, product revenue and growth. A project will get started and once the project becomes close to launch, this is the time period where the efforts stop and the company focus is shifted to the newest trend. This causes instability as there are periods of growth, then suddenly a cut to the workforce to scale back due to financials. This issue has occurred numerous times over the years and there has been a lack of confidence with the team, ultimately resulting in loss of great talent and a retention issue. Additionally with the need to move fast, there is no sense of company culture, as this was once established but was abandoned.
