Pros

The software developers are a top quality group of people. Former CEO was amazing, passionate about product and people.

Cons

They are no longer a tech for good company, they care more about inflating the egos of upper management. They no longer care about their employees, cutting budgets for learning and making redundancies seemingly at random. No bonuses despite what contracts may say about bonus potential. There is no longer a vision for the company. It's all a bit sad really. There used to be a focus on innovation and learning across the company but now they just bow to whatever satisfies the sister company at the expense of the people and products

Classist management without a clue how to run a successful company

Pros

It used to be a great place to work whith a different CEO, he had a vision and understood projects took time. The only good thing about FuturU is the people, everyone outside of management is lovely and works hard no matter how little some people in other teams got paid.

Cons

Most of the new upper management never had a clear mission and goal in mind when managing the company. Wasting money and time on projects that were clearly not going to create any revenue, and once said project was completed and no one signed up, mass redundancies happend (it was clear this was a waste of time to everyone bar the C Suite). But don't worry getting laid off isn't a big deal, its easy to get jobs now days apparently, in this amazing job market and to just get over it since it was harder to get a job in the 80s and 90s. We had a fantastic revenue generating product idea in development, but the time the team needed to be able to build it was not there and instead the teams wasted time on constant context switching. From never fully marketing the products to appeasing the partner company to support them which did not generate revenue. Its as if the C Suite set the product out to fail from the start. Once a quiet merge began to happen between FuturU and the partner company Newcross. People started loosing jobs to people inside Newcross. I don't expect FururU to last until April, it will be taken over by staff in Newcross, all work passed over with also mass redundancies there. It is clear both companies are in huge trouble. I have never worked somewhere where I felt so gaslit at every turn, Context switched every week due to C suite not being able to decide what to invest resource into, went through 20 roadmaps, failed products and upper management who sneakily tries to undercut people from other teams and butt in to work they had zero knowledge or experience in to make themslves look busy and big.
