-Still very much a startup - no HR team -Offers 6 paid holidays which is unheard of -No maternity or paternity leave -Employees live in different states, so sick time policy differs for every employee -Requires employees to use sick time / PTO for any doctors appts or to bring children to/from school -Poor leadership with closed culture I had a few unfortunate and inappropriate experiences with the CEO which demonstrated his lack of experience managing employees. 1) 2nd week of employment, I received numerous accusatory Slack messages from the CEO at 9:30 PM. I suggested we speak the next day on Zoom as it's difficult to understand tone on Slack. He ignored the message and kept typing. 2) When I resigned I explained that I had numerous doctors appointments and would require reasonable accommodations in the upcoming months, so I did not think the culture was a fit. I thanked them for my time and expressed how much I admire their product / company. I did not receive an email response to my resignation or even an email back asking what the accommodations would be if I stayed or if everything was okay. Instead, the CEO wrote an email to the entire company stating that I "did not want to work a full 8 hour work day" which was 100% false & offensive considering I stated that I had a health issue. Employees were aware of my reason for leaving, so they knew the CEO's email was dishonest. 3) Turnover - another person resigned without notice right before I did and a 3rd person resigned without notice right after I did.
