Withering away

Pros

Really smart people trying to do the right thing. There's lots of extras in the office - snacks, drinks, food etc.

Cons

Too much politics amongst leadership. Poor untimely decision making. Risk of getting thrown under the bus every now and then. There's a few favourites of the company. Hard to change stubborn people's minds. Company has no real MVP and is lagging in a very competitive market. Long hours, "international" company, but really needs to have better time management.

Pros

Great team that really works hard and looks out for eachother Culture used to be quite good before they lost their HR manager and the HR team seemed to lose all input and lots of people left Look after everyone with food and coffee and tea and gym subsidies

Cons

Leadership is pretty much non existent. they promoted tons of people and none of them really did anything but make it hard for the good leaders. Very unexperienced and no direction Such a cool product but they are now so far behind their competitors with no real MVP and slow dev Lots of miscommunication - they would tell us we had customers but they never came to life 'Global' company just means heaps of overtime and late nights/early morning are expected constantly

Pros

Company was built upon a bunch of passionate engineers, unfortunately most have left in the last 6 months or so. Free Snacks, group lunch.

Cons

CEO was away for the last 1 and half year, mainly interested in sale, not very keen to learn about product or engineering. People spend most of the time playing politics rather than cutting codes, power point presentation > technical discussion.

I apologise that your experience has left you unhappy and I urge you to please reach out to me directly, or your Lead or P&C to discuss some of the concerns you’ve raised, as we are working on a variety of initiatives across the business to support our team as we scale and your input is welcomed. I couldn’t agree more that Imagr was built by passionate people. And while we’ve had some incredibly talented people move on from Imagr, we are still absolutely driven and shaped by the brilliant minds of our engineering team, simply more in a collaborative fashion now as we move from cool tech to a saleable product. As you are aware our customers are all off-shore and as the CEO of an early-stage startup, our future depends on the sales that we bring in. I take full responsibility for moving close to these groups and can speak honestly when I say that it has also been hard for me to leave NZ permanently. Unfortunately, as you are always aware the border is closed for all travel to NZ at present making it impossible for me to travel between our offices, which I would love to be able to do - though I have the utmost faith in our team members in each office to do great things in my absence, and as always, am readily available via Slack or just a phone call away. Again, I appreciate your feedback and am really sorry that you've had such a poor experience at Imagr. What I can do is let you know that I am actively working across the company to tackle these issues. Will
