Pros

MANTL gets the full week off between Christmas and New Years, so that's something. Other than that, there are no pros for the company and I would not recommend anyone join it.

Cons

Every 6 or so months, the company will do a reorg, which will result in good people losing their jobs and the remaining individual contributors left to pick up the pieces. There is very little guidance from senior leadership. What MANTL is doing is not because of the current market, it's due to incompetent leadership and will continue beyond 2023. The healthcare benefits are standard for the industry (so nothing special) and there is no 401K match. There is very little opportunity for growth.. The culture has a serious lack of empathy and your success is going to depend on who is your manager and how good they are at playing politics, Finally, the company has been slow to address customer concerns. Instead of hiring people to address these concerns, they are hiring a bunch of sales people as they think that will magically help them make more money.

This company is not safe for technical writers

Pros

-Good mission statement -Decent compensation and benefits -A lot of good folks work there -The technology is interesting and in a good niche

Cons

MANTL is 2 for 2 in laying off technical writers during major business reorganizations (impacting about 10% of their employees each time, both immediately following incredibly expensive company parties), which have happened twice in under a year. This is not counting the smaller, unmentioned layoffs that you find out about through the grapevine. It does not matter how well you perform, or if you meet all of your quarterly goals, or if you're the only one filling that particular business role. They have repeatedly demonstrated that they do not value this sort of work, which really only hurts the customer in the long run and any teammates that will have to step up and take that on until management cares about it again. You deserve to work somewhere that values your work and its customers enough to not treat your role as a luxury, and you will not find that here. The focus is almost completely on sales, which is going to do nothing to help retain those customers, especially when the teams supporting the customers have been gutted. This will eventually impact sales as customers leave for feeling unheard and unsupported (or oversold on features that don't and likely won't exist to the capacity they expect). Which is a shame, because the tech and mission are in a niche that should be thriving but is being dinged by poor business decisions and leadership.
