Once inspiring company now feels disorganized and frantic
Pros
-unlimited PTO -really smart people across the company -the open source community loves RStudio and you feel like you’re making an impact -Slack/Google company
Cons
This company has declined sharply over the last two years and it's painful to watch. Leadership has churned across multiple departments, and the new leaders do not have a clear strategy for how to save the sinking ship. Direction shifts every quarter with no time to learn whether anything is working. The flat, approachable and “non-org chart” culture that defined this place is gone. New execs and VPs are unreachable, make decisions without collaboration, fail to protect their teams' time, and sit too far from the actual work to notice that things keep getting added to people's plates while nothing comes off. Sales has missed quarterly targets for nearly two years. Finances are tight. Roles disappear without explanation. Money still gets spent on expensive tools that were never vetted with the people expected to use them. Plus, theres the AI pressure that a lot of other tech companies are dealing with, which now has created a workforce that lives in constant fear that they're next to be let go. It is genuinely sad to see a once inspiring company become this colorless, frantic, disorganized version of itself.
