Company lacks diversity but seems like they’re working on that now given how last year went. Worst of all, some of the leadership lacks emotional intelligence and self awareness. Thankfully some of the toxic sales and marketing leaders in particular have left the company now so things in GTM are starting to feel more bearable.
It was bad to the point where many of my colleagues were actively seeking out new roles and even some of the best ones left the company.
We’ve had a revolving door of new leadership over the last 2 years but hopefully the newer ones are here to stay. If you’re looking to work for an inspiring visionary leader or build a new category-defining product, this company is probably not a good fit for you.
Not to mention, most of the company are people in their 20s- early 30s without kids. If you’re a parent or if you want to have kids I would look elsewhere or do more due diligence (especially on the parental leave policy and how payouts work). People have said and done questionable things that might not fly with a more robust HR team. It’s probably because of how young and immature some of the employees are, as well as the talent/people team. The people can be very catty, gossipy and clique-y (especially the people/talent team, which is ironic) so it doesn’t always feel like a productive work environment.
Lot of layoffs last summer and it sucked to see some of my favourite colleagues go. Really hit our company morale and they paid out very high severance packages to some people to keep from getting sued.
Many of the reviews on here are from when the talent team was trying to build out the company’s reputation and asked everyone to give the company a good rating. The people who’ve had negative experiences and left have mostly left quietly. If you really want to work here I’d recommend finding and reaching out to former employees to get a more balanced picture of the company. Not all that glitters is gold.
