Pros

- Exciting things to work on - Nice offices (rooftops everywhere!) - Culture of innovation (No fear!): you can try things, you're allowed to fail, as long as you show what you've learned in the process - Annual Summit: 2017's one was AMAZING - Worklife/balance: overall, working late/on weekends is not encouraged, and for most functions the WL balance is very good compared to most parisian companies - Compensation is good/fair

Cons

- Could do more from a benefits perspective (show the same innovation than in the core business: what about longer parental leave? One day remote per week?) - At times, so many projects going on can be overwhelming - Could do more to give back to the community (one day off per year for employees to help a local association?)

Pros

Smart, hardworking people at the individual contributor level (many of whom are now gone). Little micro-managing, but that’s because everyone’s bandwidth is near 0

Cons

Post–new CEO, the company has descended into complete chaos. There is no transparency around decisions that impact teams and roles. There have been consistent strategy, personnel, and supplier changes with no explanation, accountability, or follow-through. Cons, continued: Employee input and performance do not matter. Decisions feel driven by appeasing BoD and optics rather than results, input and reality. The culture has become a corporate hellscape of: Endless reorganizations with no clear rationale, including layoffs with no reasoning Vague all-hands meetings that avoid real issues, even when directly asked A massive disconnect between the C-suite and day-to-day reality Eroded trust and growing position insecurity Middle managers incentivized to prioritize managing up & executive optics over team advocacy “Return to Office” policy put in place when promised a “Work from Anywhere” position, where the RTO policy differs across employees’ location Little to no growth opportunities despite high performance Under-market average compensation that was justified by locale, “Work from Anywhere”, and flexibility — which was recently rolled back A clear favoritism to those that “talk the talk” vs “performance with numbers”
