Pros

Beautifully designed spaces! Ability to meet lots of interesting people.

Cons

Lots of micromanagement. Understaffed with the new structure. Management changes within the company have left the staff confused, overworked and stressed. No longer an enjoyable place to work.

Pros

The snacks offered to employees were ok

Cons

Extremely micromanaged environment where success felt unattainable. Leadership routinely inserted themselves into the sales process without relevant experience, often undermining deals rather than supporting them. A disproportionate amount of time was spent on speculative projections and reporting exercises that did not align with real-world sales activity. Productivity was further impacted by an excessive number of recurring meetings, many of which lacked clear purpose or outcomes. Despite constant oversight, there was little meaningful guidance or support. Instead, additional administrative tasks were introduced, creating unnecessary friction and limiting the ability to focus on core responsibilities. High employee turnover was a persistent issue, leading to instability and increased workload for those who remained. There were also noticeable concerns around favoritism in hiring and advancement, which affected trust within the organization. Communication from senior leadership at times lacked professionalism, contributing to a difficult and, at times, discouraging work environment.
