Current Employee – been working at BranchOut full-time for more than a year

ProsGreat concept - career networking leveraging the Facebook platform
CEO very well connected
Unlimited PTO / flexible work hours

ConsNo real culture (handful of "events", no real team feel or office bonding)
Everyone scared to say anything = no real culture
No clear direction from management, lots of confusion, lack of direction
No real value for users, deficient enterprise product
Tried to sell products before finishing any products = disgruntled customer experience

Advice to Senior ManagementCulture is not about scheduled events, for example bowling from 5 - 6:30 pm.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm not optimistic about the outlook for this company
