Thoropass Reviews

- One of the more covertly toxic workplaces out there. They try to seem like the culture is amazing and everyone is a family but the undercover politics and cliques that are formed are impossible to ever rise above - Management has NO idea what they are doing. Inexperienced leaders who refuse to learn or get better - feedback is not taken into consideration - Blind loyalty to the early employees of the company. Unsure if this is due to equity stakes (likely so) but it is holding back the company from growing. It breeds favoritism and an inability to ever get ahead if you are new to the company. - Lack of transparency from leaders - No upward mobility or real, tangible career path or trajectory across all departments - Culture of hiring and firing, year after year. The turnover rate is outrageous and newer employees will be laid off after outperforming legacy employees.

- Strange promotion policy. For example, a senior leader who seemingly never hit a major goal, announced missing goals essentially every quarter was promoted three or four times in under a year. Another example, great employees get laid off and their managers who are not good at their jobs get promoted immediately after. - Irrational return to office policy. Apparently the founders decided to get an office, when relatively few of us wanted one. When they saw that very few people were using the office, they mandated that those of us in NYC had to come in. The office is loud, hot and terrible for communication and networking. It's particularly bad when we were hired as remote employees and suddenly have to come to an office. - Two very questionable C-suite hires who made some very questionable decisions that negatively impacted a very large amount of employees. - Consistent habit of saying one thing and then doing another. Example, proclaiming, "we don't foresee any layoffs" and then laying people off less than a month later. - Disingenuous and hollow approach to diversity.
