Pros

You think you are working in a good company with people who genuinely care for you, and want to see you grow, but that isn't the reality. Frankly, every single thing that I assumed was a pro about Crossinstall turned into a con, it's so unfortunate. I always thought the culture was the best part, but it might be the worst. The view is amazing, and some of the employees are genuinely nice people. Especially, the Director of People, who actually does care about the employees.

Cons

My experience at Crossinstall was amazing, till it wasn't. Simply performing, being amicable, encouraging, and working for the better of the company is not what they are looking for. I was told when I was joining that this is the best place to start my career. That I will see growth, and will always have somebody to guide me to my path. My parents would always tell me that till I showed what I can do, nobody would give me what I want. So I worked, added more responsibilities, built resources, talked to my manager (Who never talked to me about it, and when we did have meetings, only expressed how he/she would guide me and help me, but unfortunately, this was a lie), and only felt more encouraged after every meeting, but they all just gave false hopes. It feels like I wasted a prime time of my career life here.

Pros

Amazing office and some solid perks. The engineering team is really invested and works to really be a resource for other teams.

Cons

Unless you're in with the upper management, your voice will get pushed to the side. Poor work/life balance but that seems to be the trend in the bay area.

Thank you for your feedback! We are glad to know that you appreciated working with our engineering team and sorry to hear you didn't feel your voice was heard. We invite formal employee feedback quarterly and welcome open communication anytime. We continue to find more ways to enhance a positive environment for our employees at CrossInstall where every single person feels comfortable talking to not only their managers, but also upper management anytime about anything and are able to be autonomous with their decisions and day-to-day work. We wish we were able to hear and react to this feedback during your time here!

Pros

- Product and Partners: CrossInstall excels at being a very effective DSP with amazing data science and engineering teams behind it. The other business side of CrossInstall is providing services of a one-stop-shop for creative production with a focus on interactive playable ads. The synergy between two lines of business, outstanding creative and business teams, and close partnerships with Facebook, Google, and other networks are the reason CI is one of the leaders in ad tech industry. - Trust and transparency: I feel comfortable bringing up almost any issue and discussing it with my leaders. I see the vast majority of the decisions made here have solid logic behind them (even if I don't agree with it) and are properly explained to all parties involved. I always feel heard, can comfortably reach out to anyone with questions, and get a sense that my perspective is valued. - Fair response to changes: CI handles various transitions and a multitude of complex situations in a way that makes me feel very confident about the future of the company, regardless of how much we pivot our product or change processes internally. - People! I am continuously impressed with how CI manages to be so results-oriented and yet be so on target with picking extremely kind and intelligent people that enjoy being with each other. The community here is something that I believe very few companies in the world have and I hope it continues to be that way throughout our rapid growth stage.

Cons

- The flip side of working in adtech is how quickly different products and features are being introduced to the market. This leads to a fast-paced environment where you have to be adaptable in order to grow. - Interactive media is fairly novel and a good amount of jumping through hoops is necessary for various integrations. - Accelerated growth leads to growing pains and focus can be split in many directions.
