Pros

Good people (founders excluded), good pay, decent benefits.

Cons

I strongly suggest you read the reviews here carefully before accepting an offer to work at Sheertex (or SRTX as they’ve recently rebranded). Notice how suspicious the fluff reviews here are, how non specific, short and purposefully dismissive of the rampant complaints. All citing “fast paced environment” as the cause that many ex employees were fired or quit in a matter of months. This is thinly veiled contempt for these ex employees. This is the excuse that the founders often give for the massive amounts of turnover. Or simply put, these people couldn’t cut it. Truth is, they manage to attract top people with top shelf resumes, who’ve known intense pressure, and also the success of overcoming it. So the story that they couldn’t handle it just doesn’t hold up. In my own experience, which is eerily similar to many senior people I’ve spoken to, isn’t so much the pressure at Sheertex that makes it unbearable, it’s the gaslighting, micro management, and just inexplicable disrespect for outside expertise. The CEO, despite having very little experience outside her company, refuses to accept opposing views, and labels those who disagree “divergent”, as she campaigns to have you fired. Or worse, screams at you behind a closed door telling you you don’t understand how the company works. Ask any former executive or manager. The similarity of their horror stories will shock you. They sell us big ambitions, dreams, and green washed non sense to come here, but when you start, you will quickly notice the eeriness and emptiness of these promises, as the pressure to simply cut whatever corner you need to cut to just “get it done”, putting company gain above all values, and to never complain unless you wanna be seen as weak. It’s literally against company values to complain. They call it being “resilient”. Long story short, don’t do it. It’ll cost you your confidence, time, and sanity.

Pros

Very cool people. Gain experience fast.

Cons

It’s a very toxic work place with no diversity at the leadership level. For a female-founded company, sexism is prevalent. Intelligent and ambitious women are routinely silenced in favour of white males who “talk the talk”. There are very few opportunities for growth and learning. Sporadically changing direction almost weekly at the whim of the exec team. Basically, what SF blog did they read last night and completely boil down to one idea, missing the complete understanding? That’s our new plan of action. Tons of qualified and talented employees throughout the company, but all decisions are made at exec level; consistently at odds with employee (expert) opinions. Not metric-driven whatsoever— metrics are subjectively chosen that support the story the leadership wants to share. It’s where talented humans go to burn out. You’re constantly doing the job of five people; while simultaneously being micromanaged by the exec team, who don’t listen or value anything you say. Do not listen to 5 star planted reviews. Listen to the common prevalent themes in all the 1-3 star reviews: burn out, lack of direction, no diversity, no autonomy, and toxicity.

Pros

- Staff members can be fun - Free Snacks - Booze and Food on Mondays (it gets old fast)

Cons

I was very hesitant before joining SRTX, but the salary they offered me was too much to say no. The bad reviews on here are pretty accurate. I usually take them with a grain of salt but they are pretty spot on to be fair. It’s sad to see companies still operate this way. As soon I started I quickly realized how off-putting this place really was and the true meaning of a toxic workplace. There is somethings off with the way they treat their hourly workers… Nobody seems to care about how bad it is. It’s really strange, but then you realize that there is literally nothing anybody can do without Upper management approval. You want to try and change things but, YOU HAVE NO SAY. You can barely throw away garbage and that's clear when you see the piles of broken, old and dusty equipment and lockers laying around in nice piles all over. "That's just the Sheertex way” They pitch you this concept during the interview that you will have some sort of responsibility and the fun projects you can get to collaborate on but they need to to break you down first to fill the mold. If you do end up working here, don't bother giving your opinion. Unless of course your opinion matches theirs. The lack of trust they have of their employees is ridiculous Why hire people if you don't want their opinions and experiences? No explanation, no planning, no strategy.
