Women Can't Thrive at Niche

Pros

Supportive coworkers. Wonderful caring coworkers.

Cons

The CEO and CTO are driving women away from the company. 10 women resigned in the last 2 years. They went to other places for better positions and more money. The COO isn't helping either. They can't see it. It is the C-Suite that is the problem.

Niche is a nightmare

Pros

None, it's a small company that discriminates against people especially your age.

Cons

It's a small company with a bunch of unqualified millennials who don't want to hire anyone above 30 because they think it's "THEIR" company. They feel threatened by anyone with professional skills above their age and openly discriminate against them. Human resources insults anyone who doesn't meet their age requirement and seems to have a problem with men with high skill sets. They just see it as a hang out and not a business. They think that Internet Guru's dumb advice of just hiring their friends is going to keep their boring tiny company afloat. They should be reported for discrimination. This is a common problem in Pittsburgh.

Bad Leadership, Great People (you'll hear this again and again)

Pros

Outside of those in the highest levels of leadership, every employee I worked with at Niche was incredibly supportive and affirming. The projects and people were interesting and engaging. The compensation and benefits were very competitive.

Cons

There are some very serious leadership issues with the CEO, COO and CTO at Niche. I highly recommend that any serious professional (especially if you are a woman) who values healthy leadership, autonomy, respect and creative freedom to look elsewhere for employment. The pervasive leadership issues in this culture are deeply seeded and have been occurring for many years and they are nowhere near closer to solving, or even acknowledging, the very big problems in the organization.
