Pros

Relaxed work environment. Products provide social good to clients. Most employees are friendly. Production team is highly professional and excels at their work. Lots of effort to connect the staff and create a cohesive environment by other staff members outside of leadership.

Cons

Consistent mistakes and non-payment of commissions to staff in sales. Products are overpriced. Leadership needs formal training very badly - lacking in HR basics, very unclear chain of command, and many balls dropped. Mid-level workers must constantly advocate for proper treatment - if they feel able to. Executive leadership has shown itself incapable of strategizing or leading consistently (many connections or relationships made and many balls dropped). Marketing arm is in dire straights. Consistent mistakes or non-payment of commission to sales staff. No real trajectory for growth unless you are in the production team.

Pros

Decent product that has clearly made a difference in people's lives - although it's starting to show it age.

Cons

A very ironic company. It's product is designed to help people communicate but the CEO and (remote) CFO are the worst communicators ever. The inexperienced CEO even bullies people (and hires bullies) which is the complete opposite of their mission. They also cannot make decisions so things just linger.

Pros

Amazing colleagues who are talented and truly want to support other humans in building their skills around having critical conversations with clients, or students, or patients.

Cons

Every second is logged to some sort of ticket or code -- a system that everyone universally agrees adds needless stress. It's also constantly changing. Creatives are managed by a constant churn of new project managers, which leads to a lot of confusion and frustration. The people who were let go or who walked away were mostly BIPOC, LGBTQ and/or women. There were reasons for this.
